WHAT IT DOES

What rollback_device_install does on Fortimanager

AI agents use rollback_device_install to create or update resources in Fortimanager, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fortimanager environment.

RISK

Why rollback_device_install is rated Medium

An AI agent can call rollback_device_install faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Fortimanager by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs rollback_device_install safely

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

rollback_device_install Rate-limited

rollback_device_install stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
