Delete a CDV role by its numeric ID.
AI agents call delete_role to permanently remove resources in Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes a role from Cloudera Data Visualization. Role deletion is irreversible and could break access control for multiple users if that role is assigned to them. The action cannot be undone and affects system-wide permissions, making it destructive. While not as critical as deleting all data, deleting roles has significant blast radius in access management contexts.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_role' and description states 'Delete a CDV role by its numeric ID.' The use of 'Delete' indicates irreversible removal of data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete a CDV role by its numeric ID. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_role: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server. Nothing to install.
delete_role is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_role rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_role. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
delete_role is provided by the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP server (kevintalbert/cdv-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
