Show parameters of a stored function.
AI agents call mysql_show_function_params to retrieve information from Mysql without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays information about stored function parameters without modifying any data or executing code. It is a metadata inspection utility with no side effects, falling clearly into the Read category. Severity is low because exposure of function parameter metadata poses minimal risk—it is non-destructive introspection information typically needed for administrative visibility.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'mysql_show_function_params' and description 'Show parameters of a stored function' indicate a query operation that retrieves metadata about function parameters. The verb 'show' is explicitly a read operation.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access mysql_show_function_params gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mysql, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for mysql_show_function_params:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"mysql_show_function_params": {}
}
}mysql_show_function_params is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Show parameters of a stored function. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mysql MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mysql MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mysql_show_function_params: 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. Nothing to install.
mysql_show_function_params 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 mysql_show_function_params 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 mysql_show_function_params. 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.
mysql_show_function_params is provided by the Mysql MCP server (mukul975/mysql-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Mysql, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
