Wht is SQL injection?

Answer Posted / sachin

"An attack technique used to exploit web sites by altering
backend SQL statements through manipulating application
input."

SQL Injection happens when a developer accepts user input
that is directly placed into a SQL Statement and doesn't
properly filter out dangerous characters. This can allow an
attacker to not only steal data from your database, but
also modify and delete it. Certain SQL Servers such as
Microsoft SQL Server contain Stored and Extended Procedures
(database server functions). If an attacker can obtain
access to these Procedures it may be possible to compromise
the entire machine. Attackers commonly insert single qoutes
into a URL's query string, or into a forms input field to
test for SQL Injection. If an attacker receives an error
message like the one below there is a good chance that the
application is vulnerable to SQL Injection.
