Why util_evm_nonce_gap_check is rated Low
Even though util_evm_nonce_gap_check only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs util_evm_nonce_gap_check safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Delx Mcp A2a, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For util_evm_nonce_gap_check, this is the rule to start with:
util_evm_nonce_gap_check is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Delx Mcp A2a, apply this rule, and every util_evm_nonce_gap_check call is checked against it from then on.
