  2. SQL injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection

    A classification of SQL injection attacking vector as of 2010. 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).

  3. Magic quotes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_quotes

    Single quotes, double quotes, backslashes and null characters in all user-supplied data all have a backslash prepended to them before being passed to the script in the $_GET, $_REQUEST, $_POST and $_COOKIE global variables. Developers can then in theory use string concatenation to construct safe SQL queries with data provided by the user.

  4. String interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_interpolation

    String interpolation, like string concatenation, may lead to security problems. If user input data is improperly escaped or filtered, the system will be exposed to SQL injection, script injection, XML external entity (XXE) injection, and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. [4] An SQL injection example: query = "SELECT x, y, z FROM Table WHERE ...

  5. Code injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_injection

    Code injection vulnerabilities occur when an application sends untrusted data to an interpreter, which then executes the injected text as code. Injection flaws are often found in services like Structured Query Language ( SQL ) databases, Extensible Markup Language ( XML ) parsers, operating system commands, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol ( SMTP ...

  6. Hi/Lo algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi/Lo_algorithm

    It uses a sequence-based hi-lo pattern to generate values. Hi/Lo is used in scenarios where an application needs its entities to have an identity prior to persistence. It is a value generation strategy. An alternative to Hi/Lo would be for the application to generate keys as universally unique identifiers (UUID).

  7. Attack patterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_patterns

    Another way is to group them into general categories. Another way of categorizing attack patterns is to group them by a specific technology or type of technology (e.g. database attack patterns, web application attack patterns, network attack patterns, etc. or SQL Server attack patterns, Oracle Attack Patterns, .Net attack patterns, Java attack patterns, etc.)

  8. Chosen-plaintext attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chosen-plaintext_attack

    Based on the plaintext–ciphertext pairs, the attacker can attempt to extract the key used by the oracle to encode the plaintexts. Since the attacker in this type of attack is free to craft the plaintext to match his needs, the attack complexity may be reduced. Consider the following extension of the above situation. After the last step,

  9. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    With online algorithms the pattern can be processed before searching but the text cannot. In other words, online techniques do searching without an index. Early algorithms for online approximate matching were suggested by Wagner and Fischer [3] and by Sellers. [2] Both algorithms are based on dynamic programming but solve
