How to control get_user_memberships ↓

AI agents call get_user_memberships to retrieve information from Ludus FastMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves information about the current user's group memberships. It performs a query operation with no capability to modify data, execute commands, or cause irreversible changes. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker would only gain visibility into group membership information, which does not grant unauthorized access or cause operational impact on its own.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_user_memberships' and description states 'Get current user's group memberships' with return value 'List of group memberships'. The verb 'get' and the retrieval-only nature indicate no data modification or side effects.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_user_memberships gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Ludus FastMCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_user_memberships:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_user_memberships": {}
  }
}

get_user_memberships is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Ludus FastMCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
