Get a specific repository by ID.
AI agents call GetRepository 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 information about a backup repository by its identifier. Retrieval operations that query existing data without side effects fall under the Read category. The severity is low because accessing repository metadata poses minimal risk—it does not modify state, delete data, or execute arbitrary operations. The confidence is high because the description clearly indicates a simple GET operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'GetRepository' and description 'Get a specific repository by ID' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification of data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a specific repository by ID. 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 GetRepository: 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.
GetRepository 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 GetRepository 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 GetRepository. 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.
GetRepository 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.
