Merge Risk: High · up to 319d7

The new MySQL and MariaDB connectors have defects on their main paths. Default TLS settings can fail before connecting, foreign-key and check-constraint metadata can be wrong or raise, and the read-only guarantee can silently fail open. These should be fixed before merge.

Security architecture risk: High · up to 319d7

The new database connections share gaps in destination validation and mandatory read-only setup. Cancellation and timeouts also do not reliably end connection work. Actual exposure depends on who controls connection settings, network access, and database permissions.

Retained concerns

  • High · security · observed: Both new adapters inherit destination checks that return without resolving ordinary hostnames, then pass the unchanged hostname to PyMySQL. A permitted-looking hostname can therefore resolve to an address prohibited by the stated loopback or link-local policy. Literal-address and known-hostname blocking remain effective countercontrols, but validation is not bound to the address actually dialed. Exploitation requires influence over connection configuration or DNS; production authority over those inputs is unresolved.
  • High · security · observed: Connection setup suppresses every individual session-hardening error, including failure of SET SESSION TRANSACTION READ ONLY. The adapters can consequently report a connected session without establishing their mandatory read-only control. Normal catalog callers use fixed parameterized queries, and restricted database grants provide independent protection, so this is not proof of an externally reachable mutation path. It is a shared security invariant failure affecting both engines when setup fails or credentials have broader privileges.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: Timeout and cancellation end an await without ensuring that its database worker has stopped. Fetch operations also share one connection without participating in the connect/close lock, and query failure does not invalidate that connection. Subsequent operations or teardown can therefore overlap work belonging to an earlier operation. Cancellation during setup can additionally bypass cleanup guarded by except Exception. This weakens operation-level containment and safe recovery; cross-tenant exposure or driver protocol corruption has not been demonstrated.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated shared scope is both new engine adapters. Destination bypass can initiate database-protocol connections within the hosting process's permitted network reach; it does not establish arbitrary HTTP metadata retrieval. Database impact depends on supplied credentials. The provisioning guide grants SELECT and SHOW VIEW across the target database, so those credentials authorize reading table data, not only metadata. Runtime tenant boundaries and the maximum production network scope are unresolved.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A principal able to supply a hostname or influence its DNS resolution can bypass address-based destination restrictions on the new connection paths. Separately, failed read-only initialization can leave a usable session with the account's underlying authority. These are distinct control failures; combining them into a mutation attack would additionally require broader database grants and a reachable SQL-execution path.
  • observed — The new MySQL connection-test result copies exception text into error_message. Ordinary mapped connector errors pass through existing credential-pattern masking, which is meaningful counterevidence to a blanket claim of unsanitized password disclosure. However, mapped errors deliberately retain host, port, database and driver text; the masker does not remove internal addresses. Whether those details reach a principal not already authorized to know them remains unresolved.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Controls include known metadata-host blocking, literal loopback and link-local rejection, valid TCP port bounds, optional authenticated TLS, fixed parameterized catalog queries, and documented non-administrative database accounts. Private-network access is allowed by default in the MySQL-family validator. These controls do not supply resolved-address authorization or fail-closed mandatory session setup.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Connect and close are serialized, and ordinary setup exceptions close and clear the stored connection. Fetch operations do not share that lock, cancellation tokens are checked only before work starts, and query exceptions leave the connection stored. Driver socket timeouts bound some activity, but neither timeout reporting nor clearing the stored reference proves that an already-running worker has relinquished the session.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Bind destination authorization to the address actually dialed, and make mandatory read-only initialization fail closed while explicitly separating optional engine-specific settings. Preserve operation ownership until workers finish or their sessions are safely discarded.
  • proposed — Define an authenticated production TLS policy with compatible configuration defaults, retain independently restricted database grants, and separate caller-safe diagnostics from privileged operational details. These are proposed policy improvements, not evidence that production currently applies them.

Cover the fallback path with a table that has no checks.

Both query constants return [] for tables other than orders. The test therefore never shows what happens when the MySQL 8 query returns no rows and the code falls back to the schema-wide query. Add an assertion such as list_check_constraints("testdb", "users") == []. Make the fallback mock return the orders check regardless of table. This test then fails if the fallback leaks rows across tables.

Skip the test when no live server exists.

When the server is unreachable, the else branch only checks the strings from build_mysql_read_only_session_sql. The test passes without checking server-level read-only enforcement.

Call self.skipTest(...) when is_live is false. Move the string assertions into a unit test.

The blocking pymysql.connect also runs inside an async test. Wrap it in asyncio.to_thread. The MariaDB live test has the same pattern.

Make the check-constraint mock table-aware.

This branch returns the same check row for every table. It ignores args. It cannot detect a schema-wide fallback query that mislabels checks across tables (see the comment on mariadb/adapter.py). Filter by table, or add a second table with no checks. Then assert that list_check_constraints returns [] for that table.

Correct the description of how the query timeout is applied.

The shared connect code applies the query timeout as PyMySQL read_timeout and write_timeout, and as a session statement. The text names asyncio.wait_for, but the connect path shows that only for the connection step. In the connect snippet, the session statements also run with errors swallowed. Describe the actual mechanisms.

Document that the connector does not enforce the disable prohibition, and state the MITM exposure of require.

The disable row says plaintext is prohibited in production. build_mysql_ssl_context returns None for disable with no environment check. connect() then omits the ssl argument, so the connection is plaintext. The row states a policy, not enforced behavior. The require row also omits that CERT_NONE disables both certificate and hostname verification, which leaves the connection open to man-in-the-middle attacks.

Proposed table update
-| `disable` | None | No | Plaintext transport (prohibited in production). |
-| `require` | None | No | TLS encryption without verifying server certificate. |
+| `disable` | None | No | Plaintext transport. The connector does not block this mode in production. Do not use it in production. |

- Around line 120-123: Update build_mysql_ssl_context to handle the default
TLSSettings.ssl_mode values “prefer” and “allow” with defined MySQL-family
behavior, or change the default to a supported mode; document the selected
downgrade behavior.
- Around line 51-65: Update the MySQL destination validation and connect flow
around validate_network_target and connect to resolve every hostname address,
validate each resolved address, and connect using a validated address without
triggering another DNS lookup. Preserve the original hostname for TLS
certificate verification, and ensure unspecified addresses such as 0.0.0.0 are
rejected rather than permitted by the private-network default.

Review comments at
@packages/connectors/src/dera_connectors/mysql_family/types.py:
- Around line 142-154: Update the ENUM and SET parsing near the existing type
check to extract quoted literals without splitting on commas inside them, and
unescape doubled single quotes before appending values to enum_values or
set_members. Ensure values such as comma-containing literals remain intact.

Review comments at @packages/connectors/src/dera_connectors/mysql/adapter.py:
- Around line 173-182: Replace raw exception text in the MySQL and MariaDB
connection-test failure results with a safe message that identifies the
exception type without exposing endpoint details. Keep the existing error_code
handling separate and unchanged in both adapters.

Nitpick comments:
Review comments at @docs/connectors/mariadb/COMPATIBILITY.md:
- Line 28: Update the Statement Timeout text to state explicitly that MariaDB’s
max_statement_time value is in seconds, distinguishing it from the
millisecond-based timeout_ms computation.

Review comments at @docs/connectors/mariadb/CONFIGURATION.md:
- Line 32: Update the query_timeout_seconds description to reflect the shared
connect behavior: it configures PyMySQL read_timeout and write_timeout and is
applied as a session statement. Remove the inaccurate claim that
asyncio.wait_for enforces individual query deadlines, since it applies only to
connection setup, and note that errors from the session statement are swallowed.

Review comments at @docs/connectors/mariadb/METADATA_INSPECTION.md:
- Line 32: Update the generated-column mapping text to match the exact EXTRA
strings handled by the connector in queries.py, including how those matches map
to generation_type. Verify the implementation’s matching logic rather than
implying that PERSISTENT itself maps to STORED.

Review comments at @docs/connectors/mariadb/SECURITY.md:
- Around line 40-41: Update the security-mode table in the MariaDB connector
documentation: clarify that `disable` uses plaintext and is not blocked in
production, and that `require` skips both certificate and hostname verification,
leaving connections vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks.

Review comments at @docs/connectors/mysql-family/PRIVILEGES.md:
- Around line 13-14: Update the privilege rationale in the SELECT row of the
privileges table to describe access to target-object catalog metadata without
claiming SELECT is inherently required for INFORMATION_SCHEMA visibility.
Replace the literal password in the CREATE USER example with a clear
generated-password placeholder.

Review comments at @docs/connectors/mysql/COMPATIBILITY.md:
- Line 11: Update the MySQL 5.7 entry in the compatibility table to state that
it is unsupported and untested, replacing the ambiguous “Restricted / Legacy”
status; leave the documented MySQL 8.0 and 8.4 support unchanged.

Review comments at @tests/connectors/mariadb/test_mariadb_adapter.py:
- Around line 166-172: Update the QUERY_CHECK_CONSTRAINTS_FALLBACK mock to
return check rows based on the requested table in args, or include a second
table with no checks; add an assertion that list_check_constraints returns an
empty list for that table.

Review comments at @tests/connectors/mysql/test_mysql_adapter.py:
- Around line 255-264: Update the mock branch for
QUERY_CHECK_CONSTRAINTS_FALLBACK to return the orders check regardless of the
requested table, while preserving the table-specific response for
QUERY_CHECK_CONSTRAINTS_MYSQL8. Add an assertion that
list_check_constraints("testdb", "users") returns an empty list, covering the
fallback path without leaking checks across tables.

Review comments at @tests/integration/mariadb/test_mariadb_live.py:
- Around line 59-87: Update test_read_only_session_enforcement_on_connection to
run the blocking pymysql.connect probe via asyncio.to_thread, call self.skipTest
when is_live is false, and keep the live-server enforcement assertion on the
live path; move the build_mysql_read_only_session_sql assertion into a separate
unit test.

Review comments at @tests/integration/mysql/test_mysql_live.py:
- Around line 59-92: Update test_read_only_session_enforcement_on_connection to
run the blocking pymysql.connect probe via asyncio.to_thread, call self.skipTest
when is_live is false, and keep server-enforcement assertions on the live path.
Move the build_mysql_read_only_session_sql string assertions into a unit test,
and apply the same nonblocking connection probe pattern to the corresponding
MariaDB live test.
