  2. SQL injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection

    In computing, SQL injection is a code injection technique used to attack data-driven applications, in which malicious SQL statements are inserted into an entry field for execution (e.g. to dump the database contents to the attacker). [1][2] SQL injection must exploit a security vulnerability in an application's software, for example, when user ...

  3. Stored procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stored_procedure

    Stored procedure. A stored procedure (also termed prc, proc, storp, sproc, StoPro, StoredProc, StoreProc, sp, or SP) is a subroutine available to applications that access a relational database management system (RDBMS). Such procedures are stored in the database data dictionary. Uses for stored procedures include data-validation (integrated ...

  4. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    The repeat statement repetitively executes a block of one or more statements through an until statement and continues repeating unless the condition is false. The main difference between the two is the while loop may execute zero times if the condition is initially false, the repeat-until loop always executes at least once.

  5. Prepared statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prepared_statement

    Prepared statement. In database management systems (DBMS), a prepared statement, parameterized statement, or parameterized query is a feature where the database pre-compiles SQL code and stores the results, separating it from data. Benefits of prepared statements are: [1] efficiency, because they can be used repeatedly without re-compiling.

  6. Return-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return-oriented_programming

    Return-oriented programming is an advanced version of a stack smashing attack. Generally, these types of attacks arise when an adversary manipulates the call stack by taking advantage of a bug in the program, often a buffer overrun. In a buffer overrun, a function that does not perform proper bounds checking before storing user-provided data ...

  7. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    A possible variant is to allow more than one while test; within the loop, but the use of exitwhen (see next section) appears to cover this case better. In Ada , the above loop construct ( loop - while - repeat ) can be represented using a standard infinite loop ( loop - end loop ) that has an exit when clause in the middle (not to be confused ...

  8. Code injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_injection

    An SQL injection takes advantage of SQL syntax to inject malicious commands that can read or modify a database, or compromise the meaning of the original query. [13] For example, consider a web page that has two text fields which allow users to enter a username and a password.

  9. Do while loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_while_loop

    Control flow. v. t. e. In many computer programming languages, a do while loop is a control flow statement that executes a block of code and then either repeats the block or exits the loop depending on a given boolean condition. The do while construct consists of a process symbol and a condition. First the code within the block is executed.
