Materialize convert_zip (base64) into output_dir. Best-effort: tries system unzip first; otherwise writes the zip file.
AI agents use doc2x_materialize_convert_zip to create or update resources in Doc2x MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Doc2x MCP Server environment.
The tool writes extracted/materialized zip file contents to a specified output directory. While not destructive in the strict sense (data is not deleted or overwritten), it creates new files on the file system, which is a Write operation. Severity is medium because uncontrolled file writes could fill disk space, overwrite sensitive files, or extract malicious content from a zip archive if the source is untrusted.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate file system operations: 'Materialize convert_zip (base64) into output_dir' and 'writes the zip file'. These are irreversible writes to disk that create or modify files.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Materialize convert_zip (base64) into output_dir. Best-effort: tries system unzip first; otherwise writes the zip file. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Doc2x MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Doc2x MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for doc2x_materialize_convert_zip: 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 Doc2x MCP Server. Nothing to install.
doc2x_materialize_convert_zip is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the doc2x_materialize_convert_zip 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 doc2x_materialize_convert_zip. 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.
doc2x_materialize_convert_zip is provided by the Doc2x MCP Server MCP server (noedgeai/doc2x-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
