Execute NetExec LDAP protocol commands for Active Directory enumeration, including users, groups, Kerberoasting, and BloodHound collection.
AI agents invoke nxc_ldap to trigger actions in Sec Netexec. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
The tool executes network penetration testing commands against Active Directory/LDAP services. Kerberoasting and BloodHound collection involve active enumeration and credential harvesting operations whose effects depend on the target environment and commands executed.
From the tool's definition Tool enables execution of NetExec LDAP commands for Active Directory enumeration, including Kerberoasting and BloodHound collection. These are offensive security operations that trigger external network actions and code execution against directory services.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Execute NetExec LDAP protocol commands for Active Directory enumeration, including users, groups, Kerberoasting, and BloodHound collection. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Sec Netexec MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Sec Netexec MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for nxc_ldap: 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 Sec Netexec. Nothing to install.
nxc_ldap is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the nxc_ldap 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 nxc_ldap. 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.
nxc_ldap is provided by the Sec Netexec MCP server (schwarztim/sec-netexec-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
