Alerts & Advisories

ADVISORY ON SQL INJECTION VULNERABILITY AND OTHER BASIC NETWORK SECURITY MEASURES. An SQL injection is a technique that attackers apply to insert SQL query into input fields to then be processed by the underlying SQL database. These weaknesses are then able to be abused when entry forms allow user-generated SQL statements to query the database directly. The attack results in the unauthorized viewing of user lists, the deletion of database entries and stealing of data.
