Schemagate outperforms new Text-to-SQL access control benchmark

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new benchmark for Text-to-SQL systems, released by a SIGMOD'27 paper, reveals that simply hiding restricted columns still allows models to answer questions they should refuse. The benchmark, named BIRD, showed that models could still answer 27% of restricted questions even when columns were hidden. The author of schemagate, a text-to-SQL access control tool, ran their system on this benchmark and found that schemagate achieved better results than the paper's best configuration, with no queries accessing unauthorized data.
