List all custom firewall service objects.
AI agents call firewall_service_list to retrieve information from FortiOS 7 6 X 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 enumerates existing firewall service configuration objects. It performs no creation, modification, deletion, or execution of code/commands. The action is informational only, making it a Read operation with low severity since it does not expose sensitive data directly and causes no system changes.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'firewall_service_list' and description 'List all custom firewall service objects' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no mutation or side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access firewall_service_list gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for firewall_service_list:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"firewall_service_list": {}
}
}firewall_service_list is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List all custom firewall service objects. It is categorised as a Read tool in the FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for firewall_service_list: 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 FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server. Nothing to install.
firewall_service_list 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 firewall_service_list 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 firewall_service_list. 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.
firewall_service_list is provided by the FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server MCP server (paoloamato2/fortinet-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
