Datadog Security Labs published that on 21 August 2025 (I couldn't load their page body, so the mechanism rests on the source). A model trusting the description could run writes believing they were blocked. `sql` isn't marked required and has no description, there's no row limit or annotation, and database errors are thrown as protocol errors, so some clients show the model nothing useful. Table schemas exist only as MCP resources. I'd replace the line with \"Run one SQL statement with the connected role's privileges. Nothing here makes it read-only.

The source wraps the SQL in a read-only transaction and sends it as a simple multi-statement query, so a query starting with `COMMIT;` leaves the transaction. Datadog Security Labs published that on 21 August 2025 (I couldn't load their page body, so the mechanism rests on the source). A model trusting the description could run writes believing they were blocked. `sql` isn't marked required and has no description, there's no row limit or annotation, and database errors are thrown as protocol errors, so some clients show the model nothing useful. Table schemas exist only as MCP resources. I'd replace the line with \"Run one SQL statement with the connected role's privileges. Nothing here makes it read-only. Add LIMIT, because every row comes back.\" Two, because the one sentence a model reads promises what the code doesn't keep."
