Why interceptor_browser_get_cookie needs a policy

This tool retrieves sensitive authentication and session cookies from a browser intercepted by the MITM proxy. While it performs a read-only operation (no data is modified), the severity is high because cookies often contain session tokens, authentication credentials, or tracking identifiers that could enable account compromise, session hijacking, or impersonation if exposed to an untrusted agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'interceptor_browser_get_cookie' and description 'Get one cookie by cookie_id with full value' indicate data retrieval without modification. The action is a query operation that retrieves stored cookie values.

How to control interceptor_browser_get_cookie

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

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

interceptor_browser_get_cookie 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 Proxy — 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.
