Remove an IP address from CSF allow, deny, and temporary lists. Confirm with the user before using.
AI agents call csf_remove_ip to permanently remove resources in ItchWHMMCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Removing an IP from CSF firewall lists is an irreversible action (without re-adding it manually) that directly affects server security posture. Removing from a deny list could re-allow malicious traffic; removing from an allow list could block legitimate access. The tool's own description warns to confirm with the user before using, indicating recognized risk.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Remove an IP address from CSF allow, deny, and temporary lists. Confirm with the user before using. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the ItchWHMMCP MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the ItchWHM MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for csf_remove_ip: 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 ItchWHMMCP. Nothing to install.
csf_remove_ip 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 csf_remove_ip 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 csf_remove_ip. 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.
csf_remove_ip is provided by the ItchWHM MCP server (manofsadness/itchwhmmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
