How to control mysql_revoke_privileges ↓

AI agents call mysql_revoke_privileges to permanently remove resources in Mcp Windows — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Critical Risk

Revoking MySQL privileges removes access rights from database users. This is effectively irreversible in the sense that the permissions are destroyed (though technically they could be re-granted, the loss of access can cause immediate service disruption). The description is empty, so classification is based solely on the tool name.

From the tool's definition Tool name: 'mysql_revoke_privileges' — 'revoke' indicates removal of database access privileges, which is a destructive/irreversible action against user permissions.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access mysql_revoke_privileges gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Windows, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for mysql_revoke_privileges:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "mysql_revoke_privileges"
  ]
}

mysql_revoke_privileges disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Mcp Windows — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
