Abstract
SQL Injection Attacks (SQLIAs) is one of the most serious threats to the security of database driven applications. In fact, it allows an attacker to gain control over the database of an application and consequently, an attacker may be able to alter data. Many surveys have addressed this problem. Also some researchers have proposed different approaches to detect and prevent this vulnerability but they are not successful completely. Moreover, some of these approaches have not implemented yet and users would be confused in choosing an appropriate tool. In this paper we present all SQL injection attack types and also different tools which can detect or prevent these attacks. Finally we assessed addressing all SQL injection attacks type among current tools.

Evaluation of SQL Injection Detection and Prevention Techniques
Proceedings of the 2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence Communication Systems and Networks, 2010
Database driven web application are threaten by SQL Injection Attacks (SQLIAs) because this type of attack can compromise confidentiality and integrity of information in databases. Actually, an attacker intrudes to the web application database and consequently, access to data. For stopping this type of attack different approaches have been proposed by researchers but they are not enough because usually they have limitations. Indeed, some of these approaches have not implemented yet and also most of implemented approaches cannot stop all type of attacks. In this paper all type of SQL injection attack and also different approaches which can detect or prevent them are presented. Finally we evaluate these approaches against all types of SQL injection attacks and deployment requirements.
SQL Injection Attacks: Detection And Prevention Techniques

Database driven web application are vulnerable to SQL Injection Attacks which try to access the sensitive data directly. They work by injecting malicious SQL codes through the web application and cause unexpected behavior from the database. There are different Techniques that have been proposed by researchers to prevent or detect these type of attacks. This paper has presented most of all proposed methods and tools to detect SQL injection attack. Finally, a comparison between those methodology has been presented and analyzed.
Survey and Comparative Analysis of SQL Injection Attacks, Detection and Prevention Techniques for Web Applications Security
— Web applications witnessed a rapid growth for online business and transactions are expected to be secure, efficient and reliable to the users against any form of injection attacks. SQL injection is one of the most common application layer attack techniques used today by hackers to steal data from organizations. It is a technique that exploits a security vulnerability occurring in the database layer of a web application. The attack takes advantage of poor input validation in code and website administration. It allows attackers to obtain illegitimate access to the backend database to change the intended application generated SQL queries.. In spite of the development of different approaches to prevent SQL injection, it still remains a frightening risk to web applications. In this paper, we present a detailed review on various types of SQL injection attacks, detection and prevention techniques, and their comparative analysis based on the performance and practicality.

A Survey on SQL Injection Attack Countermeasures Techniques
International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR)
As users of internet is increasing day by day. The demands for web services and mobile web application are also increased. The probability of a system being attacked is also increased. All the web applications maintain information at the backend database from which results are retrieved. As these services or web application, can be accessed from anywhere around the world which needs to be always available to all the clients, partners employees, and for different users located at different parts of world. SQL Injection Attack is nowadays one of the topmost threats for web application security as it is the easier than other attacks. Using SQL Injection attackers can steal confidential information. In this paper has reviewed most of the SQL injection attacks detection systems proposed by different authors. This paper can be useful to other researchers for their work who plans to work in security of the database from SQL Injection attacks.
Detecting and Defeating SQL Injection Attacks
The increasing dependence on web applications have made them a natural target for attackers. Among these attacks SQL Injection Attacks (SQLIA) are the most prevalent. In this paper we propose a SQL injection vulnerability scanner that is light-weight, fast and has a low false positive rate. These scanners prove as a practical tool to discover the vulnerabilities in a web application as well as to test the efficiency of counter attack mechanisms. In the latter part of our work we propose a security mechanism to counter SQL Injection Attacks. Our security methodology is based on the design of a filter for the HTTP request send by clients or users and look for attack signatures. The proposed filter is generic in the sense that it can be used with any web application. Finally we test our proposed security mechanism using the vulnerability scanner developed by us as well as other well known scanners. The proposed security mechanism is able to counter all the vulnerabilities that were previously reported before the deployment of our security framework
Injection, Detection, Prevention of SQL Injection Attacks
International Journal of Computer Applications, 2014
SQL injections have been always the top most priority for any website and web application. Every web application and website developed in php, asp.net, jsp which is connected to the database like MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and oracle are prone to SQL injection attacks. Most of the websites are created by using open source language such as php. The paper focuses the types of SQL injection attacks on the open source database in MySQL .The aim is to create a dummy web site where users can login and register. The attacker can login these dummy website using different types of SQL injection, make changes in the database, detect these types of attacks using IP tracking methods with their injection types and to prevent them.

A Review Study on SQL Injection Attacks, Prevention, and Detection
The ISC International Journal of Information Security, 2021
The functionality of a web-based system can be affected by many threats. In fact, web-based systems provide several services built on databases. This makes them prone to Structured Query Language (SQL) injection attacks. For that reason, many research efforts have been made to deal with such attacks. The majority of the protection techniques adopt a defense strategy which results to provide, in extreme response time, a lot of positive rates. Indeed, attacks by injecting SQL are always a serious challenge for the web-based system. This kind of attack is still attractive to hackers and it is in growing progress. For that reason, many researches have been proposed to deal with this issue. The proposed techniques are essentially based on a statistical or dynamic approach or using machine learning or even deep learning. This paper discusses and reviews the existing techniques used to detect and prevent SQL injection attacks. In addition, it outlines challenges, open issues, and future trends of solutions in this context. https://www.isecure-journal.com/article_150514.html

A Survey on SQL Injection Attack, Detection And Prevention Techniques
SQL Injection Attack causes a very serious security issue over web applications or websites. In this attack, Attacker is able to take benefit of poorly coded Web application software to put malicious or unwanted code into the organization's systems and network. The vulnerability exists within web application when a Web application does not provide proper validation or filtering for the input data entered by the user in the Input fields. In today's world there are large numbers of web application which are having many input fields where Hacker can get chance to attack as a SQL Injection (E.g. To dump the database contents to the attacker). So Attacker can access the confidential data of the organization. We are going to present a survey of SQL Injection attack, detection and prevention techniques in this paper .It Targets the back end data stores through web application inputs like forms, URLs etc.

Detection and Prevention of SQL Injection Attacks 1
2015
Abstract—The Internet and web applications are playing very important role in our today‘s modern day life. Several activities of our daily life like browsing, online shopping and booking of travel tickets are becoming easier by the use of web applications. Most of the web applications use the database as a back-end to store critical information such as user credentials, financial and payment information, company statistics etc. An SQL injection attack targets web applications that are database-driven. This is done by including portions of SQL statements in a web form entry field in an attempt to get the website to pass a newly formed rogue SQL command to the database. Multiple client side and server side vulnerabilities like SQL injection and cross site scripting are discovered and exploited by malicious users. The principle of basic SQL injection is to take advantage of insecure code on a system connected to the internet in order to pass commands directly to a database and to then ...
Classification of Sql Injection Detection And Prevention Measure
SQL injection vulnerability is the one of the most common web-based application vulnerabilities that can be exploited by SQL injection attack to gain access to restricted data, bypass authentication mechanism, and execute unauthorized data manipulation language. Defensive coding is a simple and affordable way to tackle this problem, however there are some issue regarding use of defensive coding which makes the system in effective, less resistant and resilience to attack. In this paper we provide detailed background of SQLIA (SQL Injection Attack), classified defensive coding to different categories, reviewed existing technique that are related to each techniques, state strength and weakness of such technique, evaluate such technique based on number of attacks they were able to stop and evaluate each category of approach based on its deployment requirements related to inheritance. The goal of this paper is to provide programmers with common issues that need to be considered before choosing a particular technique and to raise awareness of issues related to such techniques as many of those techniques were not meant for the purpose of protection of SQLIA. In addition, we hope to provide researchers by shedding light on how to develop good SQLI (SQL Injection) protection tools as most of the SQLI protection tools were developed using combination a of two or more defensive coding techniques. Lastly we provide recommendations on to avoid such issues.
SQLIA: Attack’s By SQL Injection Attack And Their Detection Mechanism
International journal of engineering research and technology, 2013
The uses of web application has become increasingly popular in our daily life as reading news paper, reading magazines, making online payments for shopping etc. At the same time there is an increase in number of attacks that target them. In particular, SQL injection, a class of code injection attacks in which specially crafted input strings result in illegal queries to a database, has become one of the most serious threats to web applications. This paper proposes a novel specification-based methodology for the prevention of SQL injection Attacks. The two most important advantages of the new approach against existing analogous mechanisms are that, first, it prevents all forms of SQL injection attacks; second, Current technique does not allow the user to access database directly in database server. The innovative technique “Web Service Oriented XPATH Authentication Technique” is to detect and prevent SQL Injection Attacks in database the deployment of this technique is by generating f...

A Hybrid Technique for SQL Injection Attacks Detection and Prevention
International Journal of Database Management Systems, 2014
SQL injection is a type of attacks used to gain, manipulate, or delete information in any data-driven system whether this system is online or offline and whether this system is a web or non-web-based. It is distinguished by the multiplicity of its performing methods, so defense techniques could not detect or prevent such attacks. The main objective of this paper is to create a reliable and accurate hybrid technique that secure systems from being exploited by SQL injection attacks. This hybrid technique combines static and runtime SQL queries analysis to create a defense strategy that can detect and prevent various types of SQL injection attacks. To evaluate this suggested technique, a large set of SQL queries have been executed through a simulation that had been developed. The results indicate that the suggested technique is reliable and more effective in capturing more SQL injection types compared to other SQL injection detection methods.
