WHAT IT DOES

What stop_xfreerdp does on Pentester-MCP

AI agents invoke stop_xfreerdp to trigger actions in Pentester-MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why stop_xfreerdp is rated High

This tool executes a process termination command, which is an external operation whose effects depend on runtime arguments (the target PID). While termination itself is reversible (the process can be restarted), the tool performs an Execute action rather than Read or Write.

From the tool's definition Tool "stop_xfreerdp" terminates a running process (XFreeRDP session) by PID. Terminating a process is an external operation that triggers immediate system-level effects based on the PID argument provided.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs stop_xfreerdp safely

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

stop_xfreerdp Rate-limited

stop_xfreerdp stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

FAQ

Questions about stop_xfreerdp

What does the stop_xfreerdp tool do? +

Terminates a running XFreeRDP session by its Process ID (PID). It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Pentester-MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on stop_xfreerdp? +

Register the Pentester MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for stop_xfreerdp: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Pentester-MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is stop_xfreerdp? +

stop_xfreerdp is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit stop_xfreerdp? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the stop_xfreerdp rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block stop_xfreerdp completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for stop_xfreerdp. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides stop_xfreerdp? +

stop_xfreerdp is provided by the Pentester MCP server (halilkirazkaya/pentester-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
