Get detailed information about a specific HAProxy frontend by UUID

How to control haproxy_frontend_get ↓

AI agents call haproxy_frontend_get to retrieve information from OPNSense MCP Server 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 configuration or status data about a HAProxy frontend. It is a read-only query that returns information without modifying, deleting, or executing any network operations. The blast radius is minimal—an AI agent misusing this would at worst retrieve frontend configuration details that a legitimate administrator already has access to.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'haproxy_frontend_get' with description 'Get detailed information about a specific HAProxy frontend by UUID'. The verb 'get' and action 'Get detailed information' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

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

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

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

haproxy_frontend_get 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 OPNSense MCP Server — 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.
