AI agents use add_enum_value to create or update resources in Kawaiidra MCP — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Kawaiidra MCP environment.
This tool modifies Ghidra's internal enumeration definitions by adding a new value to an existing enum. This is a reversible, non-destructive operation that alters the analysis context (annotations, type definitions) rather than the underlying binary or external data. It does not execute code, delete data, or cause external side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool description: 'Add a value to an existing enumeration.' The verb 'add' indicates creation or modification of data within Ghidra's analysis project.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access add_enum_value gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Kawaiidra MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for add_enum_value:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"add_enum_value": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "add_enum_value_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} add_enum_value stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Add a value to an existing enumeration. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Kawaiidra MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Kawaiidra MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for add_enum_value: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Kawaiidra MCP. Nothing to install.
add_enum_value is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the add_enum_value rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for add_enum_value. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
add_enum_value is provided by the Kawaiidra MCP server (wagonbomb/kawaiidra-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Kawaiidra MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
