AI agents call list_problems to retrieve information from Zabbix MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a read-only query operation against the Zabbix API to fetch active problems. It has no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute any changes to the monitored infrastructure. The severity is low because retrieving monitoring data poses minimal risk; an AI agent cannot misuse this to cause infrastructure damage or data loss.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_problems' and description states it '조회합니다' (queries/retrieves) current Zabbix problems. The function retrieves problem data without modifying or deleting anything.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
현재 발생 중인 Zabbix 문제(Problems) 목록을 조회합니다. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Zabbix MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Zabbix MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_problems: 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 Zabbix MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_problems 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 list_problems 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 list_problems. 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.
list_problems is provided by the Zabbix MCP Server MCP server (mchlkim/zabbix-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
