Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_group safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Proxmox MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_group, this is the rule to start with:

get_group Allowed

get_group is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  "tools": {
    "get_group": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Proxmox MCP Server, apply this rule, and every get_group call is checked against it from then on.
