Get memory usage statistics.
AI agents call get_memory_usage to retrieve information from Enterprise MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns memory usage data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a passive read operation that retrieves monitoring statistics. The low severity reflects that misuse would only result in information disclosure, with no blast radius for infrastructure or data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_memory_usage' and description 'Get memory usage statistics' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get memory usage statistics. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Enterprise MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Enterprise MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_memory_usage: 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 Enterprise MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_memory_usage 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 get_memory_usage 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 get_memory_usage. 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.
get_memory_usage is provided by the Enterprise MCP Server MCP server (maybeswapnil/enterprise-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
