AI agents use user_ldap_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.
This tool creates new LDAP user authentication settings in FortiOS. While reversible (users can be deleted/modified), unauthorized creation of LDAP configurations could enable unauthorized access pathways, privilege escalation, or authentication bypass if an AI agent creates entries with dangerous bindings or permissions. The empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the naming convention is clear.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'user_ldap_create' indicates creation of LDAP user configuration objects. The '_create' suffix indicates a write operation that modifies FortiOS configuration.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access user_ldap_create 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 user_ldap_create:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"user_ldap_create": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "user_ldap_create_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}user_ldap_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.

user_ldap_create. It is categorised as a Write tool in the FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for user_ldap_create: 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.
user_ldap_create 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 user_ldap_create 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 user_ldap_create. 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.
user_ldap_create 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.
