Sql injection attack
Download as PPT, PDF0 likes6,304 views
SQL is a language used to access and manipulate databases. It allows users to execute queries, retrieve, insert, update and delete data from databases. SQL injection occurs when malicious code is injected into an SQL query, which can compromise the security of a database. To prevent SQL injection, developers should validate all user input, escape special characters, limit database permissions, and configure databases to not display error information to users.

Sql injection attack
- 1. By RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 1
- 2. SQL stands for Structured Query Language Allows us to access a database SQL can: ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ execute queries against a database retrieve data from a database insert new records in a database delete records from a database update records in a database RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 2
- 3. A relational database contains one or more tables identified each by a name Tables contain records (rows) with data For example, the following table is called "users" and contains data distributed in rows and columns: UserID Name Last Name Uname Password 1 Rama Krishna shiva 12345 2 Raj Kumar rajkumar 54321 RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 3
- 4. With SQL, we can query a database and have a result set returned Using the previous table, a query like this: SELECT LastName FROM users WHERE UserID = 1; Gives a result set like this: LastName -------------Krishna RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 4
- 5. Data Manipulation Language ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ o SELECT - extracts data UPDATE - updates data INSERT INTO - inserts new data DELETE - deletes data Data Definition Language ◦ CREATE TABLE - creates a new database table ◦ ALTER TABLE - alters (changes) a database table ◦ DROP TABLE - deletes a database table RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 5
- 6. The ability to inject SQL commands into the database engine through an existing application. Example: Username : Password : SUBMIT ASP/MS SQL Server login syntax var sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE uname = '" + formusr + "' AND password = '" + formpwd + "'"; RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 6
- 7. Username : Password : shiva 12345 SELECT * FROM USERS WHERE UNAME=‘shiva‘ AND PASSWORD=‘12345’; Result: UserId Name Last Name Uname Password 1 Rama Krishna shiva 12345 RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 7
- 8. Username : Password : ‘ OR 1=1; -Any Value Final query would look like this: SELECT * FROM USERS WHERE UNAME=‘ ‘ OR 1=1; --’AND PWD=‘Any Value’; .....Successfully Executed.... Result: UserId Name Last Name Uname Password 1 Rama Krishna 2 Raj Kumar shiva 12345 rajkumar 54321 RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 8
- 9. SELECT * FROM clients WHERE account = 12345678 AND pin = 1111 PHP/MySQL login syntax $sql = "SELECT * FROM clients WHERE " . "account = $formacct AND " . "pin = $formpin"; RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 9
- 10. $formacct = 1 or 1=1 # $formpin = 1111 Final query would look like this: SELECT * FROM clients WHERE account = 1 or 1=1 # AND pin = 1111 RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 10
- 11. ' or " -- or # /*…*/ + || character String Indicators single-line comment multiple-line comment addition, concatenate (space in url) (double pipe) concatenate RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 11
- 12. Adding NEW Data To Databases… like uname: ‘ UNION UPDATE QUERY;/* pwd : any value */ Modifying The Data… Deleting The Required Data.. like uname: ‘ union delete tablename; /* pwd : any value */ Accessing Users Data… using select…. RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 12
- 13. Simple: Input Validation Use provided functions for escaping strings ◦ Many attacks can be thwarted by simply using the SQL string escaping mechanism ‘ ’ and “ ” ◦ mysql_real_escape_string() is the preferred function for this Have length limits on input ◦ Many SQL injection attacks depend on entering long strings RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 13
- 14. Some people use PHP addslashes() function to escape characters ◦ single quote (') ◦ double quote (") ◦ backslash () ◦ NUL (the NULL byte) Define data types for each field ◦ Implement stringent "allow only good" filters If the input is supposed to be numeric, use a numeric variable in your script to store it ◦ Implement stringent "known bad" filters For example: reject "select", "insert", "update", "shutdown", "delete", "drop", "--", "'" RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 14
- 15. Limit database permissions and segregate users ◦ If you’re only reading the database, connect to database as a user that only has read permissions ◦ Never connect as a database administrator in your web application Configure database error reporting ◦ Default error reporting often gives away information that is valuable for attackers (table name, field name, etc.) ◦ Configure so that this information is never exposed to a user RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 15
- 16. SQL Injection is a fascinating and dangerous vulnerability All programming languages and all SQL databases are potentially vulnerable Protecting against it requires ◦ strong design ◦ correct input validation RAJ KUMAR RAMPELLI 10/27/13 16
