List VMware datacenters
AI agents call list_vmware_dcs to retrieve information from CloudStack MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries information about VMware datacenters without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It poses minimal risk as it only exposes visibility into existing resources. Even in a multi-tenant environment, datacenter listings are typically non-sensitive infrastructure metadata.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_vmware_dcs' and description 'List VMware datacenters' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'list' is explicitly a Read operation that queries existing infrastructure state.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List VMware datacenters. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CloudStack MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the CloudStack MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_vmware_dcs: 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 CloudStack MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_vmware_dcs 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_vmware_dcs 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_vmware_dcs. 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_vmware_dcs is provided by the CloudStack MCP Server MCP server (mozg31337/cloudstack-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
