Reporting a problem

Please do not open a public issue for a security problem. Use GitHub's private reporting instead: the Security tab of this repository > Report a vulnerability.

Include what you found, how to reproduce it, and which version of the plugin and of MySQL Workbench you used. You will get an answer within a week.

What the plugin does with your data

  • The local server binds 127.0.0.1:9241 only and answers Workbench's own page only (Origin, Host and a custom header are checked; other web pages get a refused CORS preflight).
  • The Explorer can only list folders and read Workbench file types (.sql, .mysql, .js, .ts, .mysql-notebook, .sqlnb), up to 20 MB each. It never writes or deletes.
  • AI API keys are encrypted with Windows DPAPI for the current user in %APPDATA%\Modern MySQL Workbench\ai.json. They never reach the page and are never written into notebooks.
  • MySQL passwords are handled by Workbench itself. The plugin never sees or stores them.
