SQL injection is becoming a problem for web developers- especially those new to the field who aren’t up to speed on how insecure PHP can really be. But as the experts like to say, PHP isn’t the problem- it’s the knowledge of the programmer that counts when it comes to preventing SQL injection attacks.
It’s rather frightening to think that a statement such as “b’ OR ‘b’='b’” can render one’s security useless. But this is indeed true, and is what we call an SQL injection. SQL injections have been the most popular way to “hack” a website in recent years. As long as the input can be validated before it is passed along to the SQL query, we can ensure that nothing bad will go wrong.
