AI agents call misp_get_related_events to retrieve information from Misp 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 related events based on existing correlations and attributes. It performs no data creation, modification, deletion, or external execution. The operation is analogous to a search or lookup, which are characteristic of Read category tools.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'misp_get_related_events' and description 'Get events related to a specific event through shared attributes and correlations' indicate a retrieval operation without modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get events related to a specific event through shared attributes and correlations. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Misp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Misp MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for misp_get_related_events: 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 Misp. Nothing to install.
misp_get_related_events 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 misp_get_related_events 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 misp_get_related_events. 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.
misp_get_related_events is provided by the Misp MCP server (solomonneas/misp-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
