vulnerabilities and compromise the backend database and/or deface your website.
Alerts distribution
SQL injection is a vulnerability that allows an attacker to alter back-end SQL statements by
manipulating the user input. An SQL injection occurs when web applications accept user input
Description that is directly placed into a SQL statement and doesn't properly filter out dangerous characters.
This is one of the most common application layer attacks currently being used on the Internet.
Despite the fact that it is relatively easy to protect against, there is a large number of web
applications vulnerable.
Your script should filter metacharacters from user input.
Recommendations
Check detailed information for more information about fixing this vulnerability.
