Get all backup datasets created on or imported to the Veeam Backup server.
AI agents call GetAllBackups to retrieve information from Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves backup metadata/datasets from the Veeam Backup & Replication server. While it is purely read-only (no creation, modification, or deletion), the sensitivity is elevated to 'medium' rather than 'low' because backup datasets contain critical infrastructure recovery information that could be valuable to an attacker for reconnaissance, and exposure of all backups across the entire server could reveal…
From the tool's definition Tool name 'GetAllBackups' and description 'Get all backup datasets created on or imported to the Veeam Backup server' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modification language confirm read-only access.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get all backup datasets created on or imported to the Veeam Backup server. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for GetAllBackups: 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 Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
GetAllBackups is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the GetAllBackups 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 GetAllBackups. 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.
GetAllBackups is provided by the Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server MCP server (kid-boy/veeam-mcp-13). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
