What get_remote_access_config does on Ikuai
AI agents call get_remote_access_config to retrieve information from Ikuai without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_remote_access_config is rated Low
The tool retrieves configuration data related to remote access settings on an iKuai router. Read operations typically pose lower risk than write/execute/destructive operations. However, remote access configuration details themselves could be sensitive if disclosed to an unauthorized agent, justifying 'medium' severity rather than 'low'.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_remote_access_config' indicates retrieval of remote access configuration settings. The 'get_' prefix and absence of modification verbs (add, delete, update) suggest a read operation. Description is empty, limiting direct confirmation.

The rule that runs get_remote_access_config safely
