List all configured networks (VLANs, corporate, guest). Shows name, subnet, VLAN, and DHCP settings.
AI agents call unifi-network-list to retrieve information from UniFi 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 network configuration information without side effects. It queries and displays existing network data (VLANs, subnets, DHCP settings) but does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The read-only nature and limited blast radius (network topology disclosure only) justify low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'List all configured networks' and 'Shows name, subnet, VLAN, and DHCP settings' — pure data retrieval with no modification, deletion, or execution capability.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all configured networks (VLANs, corporate, guest). Shows name, subnet, VLAN, and DHCP settings. It is categorised as a Read tool in the UniFi MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the UniFi MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for unifi-network-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 UniFi MCP Server. Nothing to install.
unifi-network-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 unifi-network-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 unifi-network-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.
unifi-network-list is provided by the UniFi MCP Server MCP server (philipvanlewis/unifi-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
