What GetAllSessions does on Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server
AI agents call GetAllSessions to retrieve information from Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why GetAllSessions is rated Low
This tool performs data retrieval only (querying session status and metrics) with no side effects. It enables monitoring and observability of existing backup infrastructure state. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only observe session details, not alter backup configurations, trigger new operations, or damage data. Classification as Read is appropriate.
From the tool's definition GetAllSessions retrieves backup/restore sessions with status, progress and result for monitoring purposes.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs GetAllSessions safely

GetAllSessions 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 Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server, apply this rule, and every GetAllSessions call is checked against it from then on.
