WHAT IT DOES

What delete_script does on FortiManager MCP Server

AI agents call delete_script to permanently remove resources in FortiManager MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why delete_script is rated Critical

The tool performs an irreversible destructive action (deletion) on stored configuration or automation artifacts. In a FortiManager context, CLI scripts are often critical infrastructure automation components. Unauthorized or mistaken deletion could disrupt network operations, require recovery from backups, or cause extended downtime.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description explicitly state 'Delete a CLI script' — this is an irreversible deletion operation that cannot be undone.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs delete_script safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FortiManager MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For delete_script, this is the rule to start with:

delete_script Hidden

delete_script is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
