April 27, 2021 Sophia 0 Comments

SQL injection (SQL injection, SQLi, SQL injection) is often called the most common method of attacks on websites. They are widely used by hackers and pentesters when applied to web applications. In the OWASP Top 10 list of vulnerabilities, there are SQL Injections, which, along with other similar attacks, are in the first place among the threats faced by web projects.

Despite the fact that SQL injection has been around for over 20 years, this method of attacking web projects can still be successfully used to hack websites and applications whose creators have not implemented the appropriate security mechanisms in them.

This material is intended for absolute beginners, for those who do not know anything about SQL injection. We’ll start by going over the basics to navigate before talking about SQLi. Namely, we will first talk about relational databases. Then – about SQL, and about the formation of SQL queries. And finally, how SQL injections work and why they are so dangerous for web applications.

Man is what he consumes. This statement in the modern world now applies not only to food. Man is alive thanks not only to his daily bread. Every day we consume gigabytes of information, in one day we process it as much as in the Middle Ages people did not receive in their entire life. We just woke up and immediately check e-mail notifications, while we have breakfast, scroll through the feed on VKontakte or any other social network, in our free time we watch videos on YouTube, etc. etc. By these actions, we not only consume, but also create information. Each of our steps on the Internet, any of our clicks, all movements from site to site are recorded and recorded. This is called the user’s social data. It is they who make up our virtual personality. And this personality of ours has its own price, for which they are willing to pay big money.
