Fuzzy search products by name (ILIKE). Returns a paginated list.
AI agents call product_search to retrieve information from Database MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries product data without side effects. The fuzzy search with pagination is a classic read operation that retrieves existing data. The use of ILIKE (case-insensitive pattern matching) confirms it is a SELECT-based query with no data modification capability. Severity is low because misuse would only expose product information already intended to be searchable.
From the tool's definition Tool performs 'fuzzy search products by name (ILIKE)' and 'returns a paginated list'. Uses ILIKE operator for pattern matching, which is a read-only query operation. No modification, deletion, or execution of arbitrary code occurs.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Fuzzy search products by name (ILIKE). Returns a paginated list. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Database MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Database MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for product_search: 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 Database MCP Server. Nothing to install.
product_search 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 product_search 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 product_search. 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.
product_search is provided by the Database MCP Server MCP server (vrushil1/database-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
