SQL Copilot shows why an approval prompt cannot limit database access
A patched research case and current Microsoft guidance point to a concrete review: check the identity that actually executes the query.

The prompt filter is not your agent's security boundary
A CISO's warning about filter-first defenses becomes more useful when tested against agent attack data: protect the action path, not just the text entering the model.
