Why list_encryption_profiles is rated Low
This tool retrieves and displays existing encryption profile configuration data. It performs a read-only query operation without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any code. The information returned concerns local security configurations rather than sensitive data itself. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information disclosure about available encryption methods.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_encryption_profiles' and description 'List local encryption profiles' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or execution of external systems.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs list_encryption_profiles safely
