A Cloud SQL instance is a VM managed by Google that runs the SQL database instance (as well as any accompanying containers)

Cloud SQL is used to store and serve sensitive and application-critical data. Breach of a cloud SQL database can lead to exfiltration of highly sensitive data, or interruption of mission-critical applications.

A common use case of tag bindings is for use in IAM policy conditions. The "destruction:policy" and "impact:access" risks apply if the tag is used in any policies.

Risks

1. Policy destruction (CRITICAL)
2. Privilege escalation (CRITICAL)
3. Denial-of-access (EVASION)

Scope: CRITICAL

This privilege may grant access to sensitive data from a significant fraction of organizational functions, allow interruption of critical organizational services, or its exploit could lead to significant privilege escalation.
