Why set_table_permission is rated Medium
This tool modifies access control settings by assigning write and edit permissions to groups. While it doesn't directly create or delete records, it enables those capabilities for other users/groups. The most severe role offered is 'read+edit+delete' (role 6), which grants destructive permissions, but the tool itself is performing reversible permission assignment rather than irreversible data destruction.
From the tool's definition Tool description indicates it sets permissions on forms/reports with roles including 'writer' (role 3), 'creator' (role 4), 'write no delete' (role 5), and 'read+edit+delete' (role 6).
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs set_table_permission safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and QuintaDB, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For set_table_permission, this is the rule to start with:
set_table_permission 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect QuintaDB, apply this rule, and every set_table_permission call is checked against it from then on.
