AI agents call decompile to retrieve information from Ida Domain without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool reads and transforms binary code into pseudocode representation. It performs analysis/retrieval of existing data (the binary in IDA's database) without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. Severity is medium because decompilation could expose sensitive logic, algorithms, or intellectual property from reverse-engineered binaries.
From the tool's definition Decompile functions to pseudocode
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access decompile gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Ida Domain, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for decompile:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"decompile": {}
}
}decompile is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Decompile functions to pseudocode. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ida Domain MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Ida Domain MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for decompile: 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 Ida Domain. Nothing to install.
decompile is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the decompile 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 decompile. 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.
decompile is provided by the Ida Domain MCP server (xxyyue/ida_domain_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Ida Domain, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
