WHAT IT DOES

What reset_oauth_client_secret does on Linode MCP Server

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

RISK

Why reset_oauth_client_secret is rated Medium

Resetting an OAuth client secret modifies a security credential, invalidating the old secret and generating a new one. This is a Write operation (creates new secret value) rather than Destructive since the client itself isn't deleted. However, severity is high because misuse could break all applications using the old secret or allow an attacker to take over OAuth flows.
