## Why create_sdwan_template is rated Medium

This tool creates a new SD-WAN template configuration, which is a reversible write operation. SD-WAN templates in FortiManager control network routing policies and device behavior across potentially many endpoints. While reversible, misconfiguration could disrupt network traffic or allow unintended routing, hence 'high' severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name is 'create_sdwan_template' and description states 'Create a new SD-WAN template.' The verb 'Create' indicates data creation/modification without deletion."

## Use case

AI agents use create_sdwan_template to create or update resources in FortiManager MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your FortiManager MCP Server environment.
