## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "msf_session_execute",
    "arguments": {}

}
```

## Why msf_session_execute is rated High

This tool executes arbitrary code or commands through Metasploit sessions on target systems. While classified as Execute rather than Destructive (as the focus is on command execution rather than irreversible deletion), the severity is critical because Metasploit sessions enable complete system compromise, privilege escalation, data exfiltration, and lateral movement.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'msf_session_execute' indicates execution of Metasploit framework sessions. Description is empty but context shows this is part of a Kali Linux penetration testing toolkit with capabilities like psexec, wmiexec, and secretsdump—all known remote code…"

## Use case

AI agents invoke msf_session_execute to trigger actions in Zebbern Kali MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
