Answer

Hello.

Looking at the AWS CLI documentation, there is no "--description" option.  
https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/ec2/authorize-security-group-ingress.html

So you need to use a command like the following.  
```
aws ec2 authorize-security-group-ingress --group-id sg-1111111111 --ip-permissions FromPort=3306,IpProtocol=tcp,IpRanges="[{"CidrIp"="1.1.1.1/32","Description"="test"}]",ToPort=3306
```
