Summary

  • validate MySQLSearchTool table names before building the loader query
  • quote accepted table and schema-qualified identifiers with backticks
  • add regression coverage for injected table-name values and valid identifier handling

Root Cause

MySQLSearchTool.add() interpolated table_name directly into SELECT * FROM {table_name}; and passed that SQL through the RAG adapter to the MySQL loader, where it is executed with cursor.execute(query). The constructor API describes table_name as a table identifier, not arbitrary SQL, so attacker-controlled names could alter the query.

Validation

  • .venv/bin/python -m pytest lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/test_mysql_search_tool.py -> 15 passed
  • .venv/bin/python -m ruff check lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/mysql_search_tool/mysql_search_tool.py lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/test_mysql_search_tool.py -> passed
  • .venv/bin/python -m ruff format --check lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/mysql_search_tool/mysql_search_tool.py lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/test_mysql_search_tool.py -> passed
  • pre-commit on commit: ruff, ruff-format, mypy passed

Walkthrough

MySQLSearchTool validates and backtick-quotes table names before building SELECT * queries. Tests cover valid and invalid identifiers, _run delegation, and MySQL metadata wiring.

Changes

MySQL search tool hardening

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validation and quoting
lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/mysql_search_tool/mysql_search_tool.py
Adds regex-based validation for single- and two-part table names. Uses quoted identifiers when building the MySQL query.
MySQL search tests
lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/test_mysql_search_tool.py
Adds mocked setup and tests for valid table names, invalid table names, _run delegation, and RagTool.add metadata.

Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to 0daaa

The PR prevents injected table names and safely quotes accepted identifiers, but it still permits identifier parts longer than MySQL's 64-character limit, which could cause affected searches to fail at runtime. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and a bounded follow-up to reject overlong identifiers.

Summary: This PR hardens MySQLSearchTool table-name handling by validating schema/table identifiers and quoting accepted names before constructing the loader query; no exploitable security vulnerabilities were identified.

Risk: Low risk. The change reduces an existing SQL injection surface and does not introduce new authentication, authorization, data exposure, or network-facing attack surfaces.

Pull request overview

This PR mitigates SQL injection risk in MySQLSearchTool by validating/quoting MySQL table identifiers before constructing the loader query, and adds regression tests to ensure unsafe identifiers are rejected.

Changes:

  • Add strict validation + backtick-quoting for table_name (supports table and schema.table forms).
  • Build loader query using the validated, quoted identifier.
  • Add tests covering valid identifier quoting, rejection of injected identifiers, and unchanged search behavior.
