Websites can still be hacked using SQL injection - websites written in PHP (and other languages, too) can be vulnerable and have basic security issues.

We’ll share how we can hack applications with SQL Injection and why application security is important. The demonstration begins with a look at source code, then a live web attack using SQL Injection.

What is SQL Injection:
• SQL Injection is one of the top web application security risks—it’s the top risk in the OWASP Top 10 (2017).
• Injection flaws can be introduced whenever an untrusted data source is sent to an interpreter. Examples are often found in SQL, LDAP, XPath or NoSQL dynamic database queries with user supplied input. Attackers inject code into the user input, tricking the query interpreter into executing malicious commands

Tips for stopping SQL Injection:
• Use prepared statements (with parameterized queries)
• Utilize stored procedures
• Leverage whitelist input validation
• Escape all user supplied input
• Use frameworks that have built-in injection protection
