How to control remove_users_from_group ↓

AI agents call remove_users_from_group to permanently remove resources in Ludus FastMCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Removing users from a group is a destructive operation as it revokes access/membership that may not be automatically restored. While not as severe as deleting data, group membership changes can have significant access control implications and the removal is not trivially reversible without knowing the prior state. Severity is medium since it affects user permissions/access in a cyber range environment.

From the tool's definition "Remove users from a group" - removes user associations from a group

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access remove_users_from_group 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 remove_users_from_group:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "remove_users_from_group"
  ]
}

remove_users_from_group disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  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.
