About SQL Injection

SQL Injection is a web security vulnerability that allows attackers to interfere with database queries made by an application. This can lead to:

  • Unauthorized Access: Bypassing authentication and accessing restricted data
  • Data Theft: Extracting sensitive information from the database
  • Data Manipulation: Modifying or deleting database contents
  • Privilege Escalation: Gaining administrative access to the system

Prevention Techniques

  • Use parameterized queries or prepared statements
  • Implement proper input validation
  • Use an ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) framework
  • Apply the principle of least privilege
  • Regular security audits and testing

Note: This is an educational demonstration. In real applications, always use parameterized queries and never construct SQL queries by concatenating user input.
