WHAT IT DOES

What spawn_net_user_detail does on Cobalt Strike MCP Server

AI agents invoke spawn_net_user_detail to trigger actions in Cobalt Strike MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why spawn_net_user_detail is rated High

In Cobalt Strike context, 'spawn mode' means the tool forks a new process (spawns) on the target beacon to run a command — in this case 'net user detail'. This is an Execute-category action because it runs a command/process on a remote system. While retrieving user details sounds like Read, the spawn mechanism means code execution is occurring on a compromised host, elevating risk.

From the tool's definition 'spawn mode' indicates this tool spawns a new process to execute the net user detail command on a remote beacon, triggering external operations on a compromised host

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs spawn_net_user_detail safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cobalt Strike MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For spawn_net_user_detail, this is the rule to start with:

spawn_net_user_detail Rate-limited

spawn_net_user_detail stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
