Drop a table
AI agents call drop-table to permanently remove resources in Mysql Multi — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
DROP TABLE is a destructive operation that permanently removes a table and cannot be reversed without restoring from backups. An AI agent misusing this tool could cause catastrophic data loss. This is the most severe category applicable, superseding Write or Execute classifications.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'drop-table' with description 'Drop a table'. The DROP TABLE SQL command irreversibly deletes an entire table and all its data without an undo mechanism.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Drop a table. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Mysql Multi MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Mysql Multi MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for drop-table: 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 Multi. Nothing to install.
drop-table is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the drop-table 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 drop-table. 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.
drop-table is provided by the Mysql Multi MCP server (pchimbolo/mysql-multi-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
