The best way to find out if an application is vulnerable to injection is to verify that all use of interpreters clearly separates untrusted data from the command or query. For SQL calls, this means using bind variables in all prepared statements and stored procedures, and avoiding dynamic queries.

−
Checking the code is a fast and accurate way to see if the application uses interpreters safely. Code analysis tools can help a security analyst find the use of interpreters and trace the data flow through the application. Manual penetration testers can confirm these issues by crafting exploits that confirm the vulnerability.

−
Automated dynamic scanning which exercises the application may provide insight into whether some exploitable injection problems exist. Scanners cannot always reach interpreters and can have difficulty detecting whether an attack was successful.

Preventing injection requires keeping untrusted data separate from commands and queries.

#The preferred option is to use a safe API which avoids the use of the interpreter entirely or provides a parameterized interface. Beware of APIs, such as stored procedures, that appear parameterized, but may still allow injection under the hood.
+
#blankBullet2
−
#If a parameterized API is not available, you should carefully escape special characters using the specific escape syntax for that interpreter. [[ESAPI | OWASP's ESAPI]] has some of these [http://owasp-esapi-java.googlecode.com/svn/trunk_doc/latest/org/owasp/esapi/Encoder.html escaping routines].
 
−
#Positive or "whitelist" input validation with appropriate canonicalization also helps protect against injection, but is '''not''' a complete defense as many applications require special characters in their input. [[ESAPI | OWASP's ESAPI]] has an extensible library of [http://owasp-esapi-java.googlecode.com/svn/trunk_doc/latest/org/owasp/esapi/Validator.html white list input validation routines].

The application uses untrusted data in the construction of the following vulnerable SQL call:

−
{{Top_10_2010:ExampleBeginTemplate}}<span style="color:red;">String query = "SELECT * FROM accounts WHERE custID='" + request.getParameter("id") +"'";</span>{{Top_10_2010:ExampleEndTemplate}}
+
{{Top_10_2010:ExampleBeginTemplate}}<span style="color:red;">blank code</span>{{Top_10_2010:ExampleEndTemplate}}
−
The attacker modifies the 'id' parameter in their browser to send: ' or '1'='1. This changes the meaning of the query to return all the records from the accounts database, instead of only the intended customer's.

blank
 
{{Top_10_2010:ExampleBeginTemplate}}<nowiki>http://example.com/app/accountView?id=</nowiki><span style="color: red;">' or '1'='1</span>{{Top_10_2010:ExampleEndTemplate}}

−
In the worst case, the attacker uses this weakness to invoke special stored procedures in the database, allowing a complete takeover of the database host.
