Critical Risk

Why void_sale needs a policy

Voiding a sale is a direct financial action that cancels or reverses a payment transaction, which can result in significant monetary impact. It falls squarely in the Financial category as it modifies financial obligations. The blast radius is critical because an AI agent misusing this tool could cancel legitimate sales transactions, causing revenue loss and potential disputes.

From the tool's definition 'Void / cancel a sale' and 'PUT /sales/{paymentId}/void' — this reverses or cancels a financial transaction, committing a financial operation that affects payment obligations

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access void_sale gives an agent:

How to control void_sale

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Ap2, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for void_sale:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "void_sale": {
      "deny_if": [
        {
          "conditions": [],
          "on_deny": "Requires human approval."
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any call to void_sale is blocked until a human approves it. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Mcp Ap2 — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
