[WIP] List all AAD Group(s) that are synchronized with AD (Required: azurehound)
AI agents call list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad to retrieve information from BloodHound MCP 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 Azure AD groups synchronized with on-premises Active Directory. While it performs no writes, executions, or destructive actions, the severity is elevated to 'high' because the information returned (AAD/AD group membership, synchronization relationships) is valuable reconnaissance data in Active Directory security assessments.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'list_all' and description states it 'List all AAD Group(s)' — classic Read operation. The verb 'list' combined with 'all' indicates data retrieval with no modification or execution.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and BloodHound MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad": {}
}
}list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
[WIP] List all AAD Group(s) that are synchronized with AD (Required: azurehound). It is categorised as a Read tool in the BloodHound MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the BloodHound MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad: 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 BloodHound MCP. Nothing to install.
list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad 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 list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad 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 list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad. 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.
list_all_aad_groups_synchronized_with_ad is provided by the BloodHound MCP server (stevenyu113228/bloodhound-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
