Return current session info (session state + GDB state) without issuing new GDB commands.
AI agents call get_session_info to retrieve information from Pwno without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries the current state of a debugging session. It performs no modifications, deletions, code execution, or external operations—it only reads and returns information about existing session state. This is a classic Read operation with minimal blast radius.
From the tool's definition Tool returns current session info and GDB state without issuing new GDB commands. The verb 'Return' and phrase 'without issuing new GDB commands' indicate pure retrieval with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_session_info gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Pwno, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_session_info:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_session_info": {}
}
}get_session_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Return current session info (session state + GDB state) without issuing new GDB commands. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Pwno MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Pwno MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_session_info: 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 Pwno. Nothing to install.
get_session_info 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 get_session_info 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 get_session_info. 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.
get_session_info is provided by the Pwno MCP server (pwno-io/pwno-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
