执行SELECT查询语句,返回查询结果
AI agents call query to retrieve information from MySQL MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool is explicitly described as executing SELECT queries and returning results. SELECT is the standard SQL command for data retrieval with no side effects. However, severity is medium rather than low because: (1) the broader server context allows SQL execution and transactions, so query injection or privilege escalation is possible if input validation is weak; (2) returned data may be sensitive; (3) the sibling…
From the tool's definition Tool name 'query' and description '执行SELECT查询语句,返回查询结果' (Execute SELECT query statements, return query results) indicate retrieval of data without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
执行SELECT查询语句,返回查询结果. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MySQL MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MySQL MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for query: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches MySQL MCP Server. Nothing to install.
query is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the query rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for query. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
query is provided by the MySQL MCP Server MCP server (microsnow/mysql-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
