WHAT IT DOES

What user_group_create does on FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server

AI agents use user_group_create to create or update resources in FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why user_group_create is rated Medium

The '_create' suffix indicates a write operation that creates new objects (user groups) in the FortiOS system. This is reversible (can be deleted) but has high severity due to potential impact on access control and administrative blast radius if an agent misconfigures user group permissions or creates unauthorized groups.

From the tool's definition Tool named 'user_group_create' with no description. Based on naming convention and context within FortiOS MCP server exposing REST API operations, this tool creates user groups—a reversible data modification operation.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs user_group_create safely

user_group_create Rate-limited

user_group_create 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.
