## Why wallet_add_network is rated Medium

This tool modifies wallet configuration by adding custom networks and API URLs. While reversible (networks can be removed or reconfigured), the ability to inject custom API URLs into a Bitcoin wallet creates a high-severity risk: a compromised AI agent could redirect transaction communication to attacker-controlled endpoints, enabling man-in-the-middle attacks on subsequent financial operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'wallet_add_network' and description 'Add a custom network with custom API URLs' indicate creation/modification of network configuration data. The verb 'Add' and action of configuring custom API endpoints represent reversible data modification."

## Use case

AI agents use wallet_add_network to create or update resources in Bitcoin wallet MCP server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Bitcoin wallet MCP server environment.
