THE RISK

Critical Risk

Why delete_cdn_ssl_certificate needs a policy

Deleting an SSL certificate from a CDN zone is a destructive, non-reversible action that cannot be undone programmatically. If an AI agent executes this without proper intent, it removes critical encryption infrastructure, breaking HTTPS for end users and exposing traffic. High severity due to infrastructure impact and inability to recover without manual re-issuance.

From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'delete' and description states 'Remove SSL certificate' — irreversible deletion of security infrastructure.

POLICY

How to control delete_cdn_ssl_certificate

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Vultr MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for delete_cdn_ssl_certificate:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete_cdn_ssl_certificate"
  ]
}

delete_cdn_ssl_certificate disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

Create a free account and register Vultr MCP — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
