Zoho Analytics MCP Server Allows Destructive AI Actions, Test Reveals

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A live test by ScriptMasterLabs revealed that the server includes tools for destructive actions like deleting rows and replacing tables, with a destructive action being auto-executed despite not being on the allowlist.
