Terminate a pwndbg session and free all resources.
AI agents call pwndbg_terminate to permanently remove resources in Pwndbg Lldb — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Terminating a debug session and freeing all resources is an irreversible action — the session state, breakpoints, and any in-progress debugging context are permanently destroyed. While it doesn't delete files or data on disk, it irreversibly ends the debugging session. Severity is medium because it affects only the debugging session, not the target binary or system data.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Terminate a pwndbg session and free all resources. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Pwndbg Lldb MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Pwndbg Lldb MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pwndbg_terminate: 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 Pwndbg Lldb. Nothing to install.
pwndbg_terminate is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pwndbg_terminate 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 pwndbg_terminate. 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.
pwndbg_terminate is provided by the Pwndbg Lldb MCP server (micro-evaluation-group/pwndbg-lldb-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
