Medium Risk

Why updateLead needs a policy

updateLead modifies existing lead records in Bitrix24 CRM. This is a reversible write operation (leads can be edited again or reverted), not destructive deletion. The medium severity reflects that CRM data modification could impact business processes and customer information, but the operation is not permanent or financial in nature.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'updateLead' indicates modification of lead data. Server description confirms CRUD operations on leads. Tool description is empty, reducing confidence slightly.

How to control updateLead

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Bitrix24 MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for updateLead:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "updateLead": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "updatelead_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

updateLead stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Bitrix24 MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
