## Why databricks_update_share is rated Medium

The 'update' verb indicates reversible modification rather than deletion or execution. Databricks shares control data access permissions and collaboration—updating them could affect data visibility and access controls for multiple users, warranting 'high' severity. Confidence is moderate (0.75) due to empty description; if the tool modifies sensitive access controls, severity could escalate to 'critical'.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'databricks_update_share' indicates modification of share objects. Description is empty, limiting specificity."

## Use case

AI agents use databricks_update_share to create or update resources in Databricks MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Databricks MCP Server environment.
