AI agents call list_public_ip_addresses to retrieve information from CloudStack MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs data retrieval only—it lists existing public IP addresses without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It has no side effects and poses minimal risk even if called repeatedly or with varied arguments. Classified as Read with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_public_ip_addresses' and description 'List public IP addresses' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves information without modifying or executing operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_public_ip_addresses gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and CloudStack MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_public_ip_addresses:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_public_ip_addresses": {}
}
}list_public_ip_addresses is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List public IP addresses. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CloudStack MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the CloudStack MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_public_ip_addresses: 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 CloudStack MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_public_ip_addresses 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 list_public_ip_addresses 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 list_public_ip_addresses. 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.
list_public_ip_addresses is provided by the CloudStack MCP Server MCP server (phantosmax/cloudstack-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from CloudStack MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
