THE RISK

Why signature_resolve needs a policy

This tool performs active memory scanning (AOB/signature scan) and then resolves/dereferences a memory operand to compute a target address. It operates on DMA-based direct memory access, meaning it reads and interprets live process memory.

From the tool's definition Find a byte pattern and resolve the operand to a target address — all in one step

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access signature_resolve gives an agent:

POLICY

How to control signature_resolve

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for signature_resolve:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "signature_resolve": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "signature_resolve_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

signature_resolve 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.

Create a free account and register Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about signature_resolve

What does the signature_resolve tool do? +

Find a byte pattern and resolve the operand to a target address — all in one step. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on signature_resolve? +

Register the Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for signature_resolve: 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 Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs. Nothing to install.

What risk level is signature_resolve? +

signature_resolve is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit signature_resolve? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the signature_resolve 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.

How do I block signature_resolve completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for signature_resolve. 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.

What MCP server provides signature_resolve? +

signature_resolve is provided by the Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs MCP server (neverdecel/nevercheese-pcileech-memprocfs-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs tool call.

Start from Nevercheese Pcileech Memprocfs, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
