RE: [WEB SECURITY] Re: SQL In the Request

["Nish Bhalla" <nish () securitycompass com>]

Well funny thing is that I have seen a couple of seminar sites titled
"Security for Developers" and one other Computer Security Conferences
website that are vulnerable to the exact same SQL Injection vulnerability. I
am surprized how people hold conferences on security and don't even do basic
security checks.

Nish.

Just to add another dumb example from real life, I did an application
assessment a couple of months ago that had a page like this:

http://AppName/QueryDB.jsp?sql=sql_query

it can't be worse than that..

Hi,

I actually saw this kind of blasphemy several years ago -- an application
that builds a SQL query using client-side JavaScript. The complete SQL query
was then passed as a hidden parameter to the web application...

Go figure...

Just when i thought i had seen it all... -i come across a site which
passes in the following as part of the REQUEST..
yes, the SWF builds a request and sends it through to a php server... in
plain text.

POST /flashsql.php?id=106 HTTP/1.1

= QUERYSTRING ====
 id=106

= BODY ====
 host=<HOSTNAME>
 sql_=SELECT DISTINCT(movies.id), movies.name, filename FROM movies LEFT
JOIN groups_movies ON (movies.id = groups_movies.movie_id) LEFT JOIN
groups ON (groups.id = groups_movies.group_id) LEFT JOIN files_groups ON
(groups.id = files_groups.group_id) LEFT JOIN files ON (files.id =
files_groups.file_id) WHERE movies.id IN(155,150,52,149,134,133,76) AND
files.file_type_id=9 ORDER BY movies.id
 dat=sk_cms

is there anyway that this can be "acceptable" ?
