PHP - Mysql Injection Attacks
Hello People,
Been reading up on these and trying to understand them more. Say I have a file called page.php?id=12345 and when users hit the page I run this code in the background: $id = $_GET['id']; $query = "UPDATE tbl SET live = '1' WHERE id = '".$id."'"; That page is not open to any attack right? Even though i'm using $_GET. Am I right in thinking that attacks only happen on online forms. So for example there is no way an attacker could somehow output all the data in my table tbl Thank yo Similar TutorialsHey Guys, Hope you are all having a great day I was hoping somebody could help me with preventing my blog from being attacked by SQL Injection. I made a simple blog in using PHP and MySQL but I keep getting spam comments (even though I use re-captcha) and some files were overwritten on my web server. For all my input I use mysql_real_escape_string but I still get the problem. I found a video on youtube that showed how to enter stuff on the address bar like "order by 2--" and "union all select...." after passing a variable etc, and all of the things in the video could be replicated on my site I am guessing that is my problem, but the video did not tell me how to resolve the issue and I am sick of having to delete hundreds of spam comments per day and check my web server for uploaded files. How can I stop people adding these commands to the address bar and getting data from my database? I really need your help Thanx, Jen been wondering about this for a while do I need to put the escape on each WHERE? or do i really only need to put it on the $_POST i can probably understand why i need it on $_GET also after WHERE. So wondering about the session id. Code: [Select] <?php mysql_query("UPDATE systems SET homes= $homes + '".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['homes'])."' WHERE address = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['planet'])."' AND id = '".($_SESSION['user_id'])."'"); ?> $_POST['user_name'] = "CLUEL3SS"; $_POST['user_pass'] = "test123"; $_POST['confirm_pass'] = "test123"; $_POST['user_email'] = "user@email.com"; $_POST['confirm_pass'] = 'user@email.com'; function testFunc($inputVars){ foreach($inputVars as $key=>$value){ $escapeData[$key] = mysql_real_escape_string($value); } return $escapeData; } var_dump(testFunc($_POST)); I'm trying to make a user system for my site and I want to make sure its secure enough to void off injection attackers. Any useful advice and and suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! How can you protect mysql injection? (from inserting different statements into the input field) Thanks Does this code have mySQL Injection vulnerability?
$query = "DELETE FROM `$table` WHERE `$column` IN('".implode("','",$array)."')";using php5, would this make the code more safe... foreach($array as $key=>$a){ $array[$key] = mysql_real_escape_string($a);} $query = "DELETE FROM `$table` WHERE `$column` IN('".implode("','",$array)."')";or is there another way to make the code safe? i am using a Anti MySQL Injection my friend made for me config.php //Anti MySQL Injection function anti_injection($sql) { // removes words that contain sql syntax $sql = preg_replace(sql_regcase("/(from|select|insert|delete|where|drop table|show tables|#|\*|--|\\\\)/"),"",$sql); $sql = trim($sql); // strip whitespace $sql = strip_tags($sql); // strip HTML and PHP tags $sql = addslashes($sql); // quote string with slashes return $sql; } <?php include "./config.php"; $title = $_POST[title]; $type = $_POST[type]; $episode = $_POST[episode]; $year = $_POST[year]; $genre = $_POST[genre]; $status = $_POST[status]; $summary = $_POST[summary]; $pictures = $_POST[pictures]; $title = anti_injection($title); $type = anti_injection($type); $episode = anti_injection($episode); $year = anti_injection($year); $genre = anti_injection($genre); $status = anti_injection($status); $summary = anti_injection($summary); $pictures = anti_injection($pictures); ?> When i enter the data from the text box and click submit it still puts the data in to the date base but it shows ]Notice: Use of undefined constant title - assumed 'title' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 41 Notice: Use of undefined constant type - assumed 'type' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 42 Notice: Use of undefined constant episode - assumed 'episode' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 43 Notice: Use of undefined constant year - assumed 'year' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 44 Notice: Use of undefined constant genre - assumed 'genre' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 45 Notice: Use of undefined constant status - assumed 'status' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 46 Notice: Use of undefined constant summary - assumed 'summary' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 47 Notice: Use of undefined constant pictures - assumed 'pictures' in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\addin11.php on line 48 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 Deprecated: Function sql_regcase() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\studying\take 2\config.php on line 30 And thanks to the Anti MySQL Injection my Primary key in my database dont work :s can you help? thank you is this select query code safe from injection?
try { $stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM posts WHERE key=$key"); $stmt->execute(); $row = $stmt->fetch(); }notice there is no bind. $stmt->bindParam(':key', $key);the reason i am asking is that i have many $key variable in the query and i do not know how to use bind in a query such as this... SELECT count(*) FROM posts WHERE MATCH (file) AGAINST ('$key' IN BOOLEAN MODE) OR MATCH (user) AGAINST ('$key' IN BOOLEAN MODE)the $key is not an array and the $key does not change it's value. Edited by kalster, 04 January 2015 - 05:52 PM. I currently use the following function to clean form inputs to prevent MySql injection, Does this function do enough to prevent MySql injection? is there anything i have missed? <?php //Function to sanitize values received from the form. Prevents SQL injection function clean($str) { $str = @trim($str); if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $str = stripslashes($str); } return mysql_real_escape_string($str); } ?> Hey guys, I am having a problem with making a system where it is turn based attacks. I want it so a user can attack a monster and the monster can attack back, the output I want is like. Code: [Select] You hit the monster for 5. The monster hit you for 7. You hit the monster for 3. The monster hit you for 6. and so on. I have been going at this for ages and cannot get what I want. I had problems such as: The monster attacking when it should be dead. Even when the monster was dead the user would still attack. This is the code I have now that is maybe totaly wrong, thats why I need your guys help! Code: [Select] $monster_hp = 10; $userhp =10; for ($i=1,$n=1; $i<=$monster_hp, $n<=$userhp; $n+=$damtaken, $i+=$damdone){ $damtaken = 1*rand(1,3) + rand(1,4) + 1 + 1; $damdone = 1*rand(1,2) + rand(1,2) + 1 + 1; echo "You hit the monster for $damdone.<br />"; echo "The monster hit you for $damtaken. <br />"; } The output for that is: Code: [Select] You hit the monster for 5. The monster hit you for 7. You hit the monster for 5. The monster hit you for 5. That is wrong due to the monster having 10 hp and I have hit him for 10hp overall. I know that thats because the echo is in the loop so it has to run but I have tried so many ways to get this to work and cannot do it. If I die, it should stop with the monsters attack and a message saying "The monster has killed you", if I win it should stop his next attack and say "You have killed the monster". Please help me guys, you have helped me before so I know how good some of you are. Thank you so much for anyhelp that is givin. Ruddy. I am having a wamp issue so I can't try these out right now. According to the book I'm learning php with, I can easily avoid injection attacks this way:
$a= stripslashes($a);
$a= mysql_real_escape_string($a);
What concerns me is the repetition of the variable, $a. Does it matter? Intuitively, it should.
$a changes. By the time $a hits mysql_real_escape_string it is slash-free. So it is a totally different "value" but still contained in the original variable which may have had slashes...just has me concerned a bit.
I know PDOs are the best way. I'm not there yet, unfortunately.
Edited by baltar, 23 May 2014 - 10:36 AM. I'm confused, can this result in css/sql injection? Code: [Select] if(isset($_GET['action'])){ if($_GET['action'] == 'details'){ $cupID = $_GET['cupID']; $ergebnis = safe_query("SELECT gameaccID, name, start, ende, typ, game, `desc`, status, checkin, maxclan, gewinn1, gewinn2, gewinn3 FROM ".PREFIX."cups WHERE ID = '".$cupID."'"); $ds=mysql_fetch_array($ergebnis); ... Some german fellow was explaining, translate to English briefly: "$ CupID is not escaped. NEN here I could just "; DROP TABLE` cups `Paste and your table is no longer available eez. Or I could inject javascript, your current session read out, accept it and act as an admin ... " I am trying to understand what he means by this... is this query vulnerable to an injection and why/how? I want to know which part of my script has the hole..as i can find lots of php script and even folder can be injected into my public_html how they do that, and which part need to be checked? is that the upload part <enctype> or what?? thanks in advance Hi, I'm sure many of you heard of "pastebin", if not the short of it, is that you can submit your code (+100 languages), and you can display it to your friends via a link with syntax highlighting available. So, One way to store the code is surely in txt files, but I would really prefer to have it stored in a mysql database. My only concern is people trying to run a sql injection, so how do i get around all this? I don't want the user's content to be changed, but I don't want SQL injections either.. is this even possible at all? Any tips appreciated, also if you could think of another alternative than txt files and mysql. Will this prevent a SQL injection? I am guessing the answer is no because it is too simple. // retrieve form data ========================================== $ama = $_POST['ama']; // Check for alphanumeric characters ===================================== $string = "$ama"; $new_string = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9\s]/", "", $string); // echo $new_string; // Send query =========================================================== $query = "SELECT * FROM members WHERE ama='$new_string'"; if (!mysql_query($query)){ die('Error :' .mysql_error()); } I'm trying to use dependency injection to pass a database connection to an object but I'm not sure why it's not working. I have my "dbClass" below that connects to a MySQL database. Code: [Select] class dbClass { public $db; function __construct() { $this->db = mysql_connect("localhost","username","password") or die ('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); return $this->db; } } Then I have my "baseClass". This is the class that I want to feed to connection too. Code: [Select] class baseClass { public $mysql_conn; function __construct($db) { $this->mysql_conn = $db; $rs = mysql_select_db("webdev_db", $this->mysql_conn) or die ('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } } And this is my index.php file. The error I'm getting is "supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource". However I tripled checked and my db connection details are definately correct. Code: [Select] $db = new dbClass(); $baseclass = new baseClass($db); Thanks for any help. Based on the comments on my previous question, took some tutorials on how to avoid injections on query. Does the code below prevents against it in any way.? Secondly, can you recommend a good article that writes well in how to secure input data by users. Please be kind with your comments.😉😉. Thankks in advance.
The code works fine. <?php include 'db.php'; error_reporting(E_ALL | E_WARNING | E_NOTICE); ini_set('display_errors', TRUE);  if(isset($_POST['submit']))  {     $username = $_POST['username']; $password =  ($_POST['password']); $sql = "SELECT * FROM customer WHERE username = ?"; $stmt = $connection->prepare($sql); $stmt->bind_param('s', $username); $stmt->execute(); $result = $stmt->get_result(); $count =  $result->num_rows;   if($count == 1)              { while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc())  {   if ($row['status'] == 'blocked')  {  echo'your account is suspended'   session_destroy();   exit();  }  else if($row['status'] == 'active') { if($username !== $row['username'])  { echo '<script>swal.fire("ERROR!!", " Username is not correct. Check Again", "error");</script>'; } if($password !== $row['password']) {  echo'<script>swal.fire("ERROR!!!", "Your Password is Incorrect. Check Again.", "error");</script>';     } if($username == $row['username'] && $password == $row['password']) { header('Location:cpanel/'); else { } }//if count }//while loop }//submit ?>  Hello, I have a video game site - mostly vBulletin which is fine but there are a few extra bits to the site that I have done myself. I'm pretty new to PHP so my code isn't great. Anyway, I wanted to test my code for SQL Injection but I looked on Google and most of the tools seemed to come from hacker sites etc which I'm not downloading. I eventually found an addon for Firefox called SQL Inject Me and ran that. It said everything was alright but when I checked my MySQL tables they were full of junk code it had inserted. One of my pages doesn't even have any visible fields. It's just a page with a voting submit button and some hidden fields so how does it inject the code into the tables? The insert page code is: Code: [Select] $db = mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password"); mysql_select_db("thedatabase",$db); $ipaddress = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['ipaddress']); $theid = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['theid']); $gamert = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['gamert']); $serveron = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['serveron']); $check= mysql_query("select * from voting2 where ipaddress='$ipaddress'"); $ipname = mysql_fetch_assoc($check); if($ipname['ipaddress'] == $ipaddress) { echo 'It appears you have already voted. Click <a href="vote.php">here</a> to return to the votes.'; } else { mysql_query ("INSERT INTO voting2 (theid,ipaddress,gamert,serveron2) VALUES ('$theid','$ipaddress','$gamert','$serveron')"); echo 'Your vote has been added. Click <a href="vote.php">here</a> to view the updated totals.'; } How can I make it safer against SQL injection? Thanks i just want to ask this simple question let say i have this basic query $place=$_GET['place']; mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE place='$place'"); this is a nice target for sql injection.. but what if i replace the whole special characters that could be added $replacethis=array("-","`"); $withthis=array("",""); $place=str_replace($replacethis,$withthis,$_GET['place']); mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE place='$place'"); Are they still able to do the basic sql injection by trying to get the error by adding special character although i didn't use mysql_real_escape_string() ?? then what if i protect the file by changing the setting of the permission to either 644 or 755? thanks in advance im having some robots injecting gibberish i wnat to deny amy links in the requesttext of the form for some reason i tested it and it accepted a http link Code: [Select] if (preg_match("/http/i","$RequestText")){ exit();} thanks |
