List all IP addresses on the server and their assignments
AI agents call whm_list_ips to retrieve information from ItchWHMMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays IP address information from a WHM server without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward informational read operation with no side effects. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could view IP assignments but cannot alter infrastructure or commit harmful actions through this tool alone.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'whm_list_ips' and description 'List all IP addresses on the server and their assignments' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or execution of commands.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all IP addresses on the server and their assignments. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ItchWHMMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ItchWHM MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for whm_list_ips: 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.
whm_list_ips 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 whm_list_ips 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 whm_list_ips. 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.
whm_list_ips 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.
