Why mysql_fulltext_drop is rated Critical
This tool removes a FULLTEXT index, which is an irreversible destructive action. While not as severe as dropping an entire table, deleting indexes can impact query performance and cannot be undone without recreation. Classified as Destructive rather than Write because DROP operations are inherently irreversible data structure modifications.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'drop' and description states 'Drop a FULLTEXT index from a table.' DROP operations irreversibly remove database objects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs mysql_fulltext_drop safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mysql Mcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For mysql_fulltext_drop, this is the rule to start with:
mysql_fulltext_drop is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Mysql Mcp, apply this rule, and every mysql_fulltext_drop call is checked against it from then on.
