# get_external_threat_feed Get details of a specific external threat feed. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `get_external_threat_feed`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/get-external-threat-feed ## Facts - Tool: `get_external_threat_feed` - Server: Fortimanager (`jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get_external_threat_feed", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why get_external_threat_feed is rated Low The tool retrieves information about an external threat feed configuration. The use of 'get' and 'details' clearly signals a read-only query operation. There is no modification, deletion, execution of commands, or financial impact. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker gains visibility into threat feed configurations but cannot alter security posture directly through this tool alone. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_external_threat_feed' and description 'Get details of a specific external threat feed' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects." ## Use case AI agents call get_external_threat_feed to retrieve information from Fortimanager without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Fortimanager: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "get_external_threat_feed": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Fortimanager (583) - `bulk_delete_security_profile_entries` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/bulk-delete-security-profile-entries.md - `clear_database_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/clear-database-cache.md - `delete_adom_revision` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-adom-revision.md - `delete_central_dnat_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-central-dnat-policy.md - `delete_central_snat_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-central-snat-policy.md - `delete_certificate_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-certificate-template.md - `delete_cli_script` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-script.md - `delete_cli_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-template.md - `delete_cli_template_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-cli-template-group.md - `delete_custom_application` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-custom-application.md - `delete_device_blueprint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-device-blueprint.md - `delete_device_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-device-group.md - `delete_dns_filter_domain` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-dns-filter-domain.md - `delete_dynamic_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-dynamic-interface.md - `delete_external_threat_feed` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-external-threat-feed.md - `delete_firewall_address` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-address.md - `delete_firewall_policy` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-policy.md - `delete_firewall_zone` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-firewall-zone.md - `delete_fortiap_profile` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-fortiap-profile.md - `delete_fortiextender` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-fortiextender.md - `delete_internet_service_fqdn` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-internet-service-fqdn.md - `delete_internet_service_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-internet-service-group.md - `delete_ip_pool` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ip-pool.md - `delete_ips_sensor` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ips-sensor.md - `delete_ipsec_phase1_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-phase1-interface.md - `delete_ipsec_phase2_interface` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-phase2-interface.md - `delete_ipsec_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-ipsec-template.md - `delete_meta_field` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-meta-field.md - `delete_object_metadata` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-object-metadata.md - `delete_policy_block` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp/delete-policy-block.md - …and 553 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/jmpijll-fortimanager-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
