{keyword} Union All: Select Null,null,null,null,null,null,null-- Pvwz

Use "allow-lists" to ensure input matches the expected format (e.g., ensuring a ZIP code is only numbers).

: This is a comment operator in SQL. It tells the database to ignore the rest of the original query, preventing errors from trailing code. How to Prevent This Use "allow-lists" to ensure input matches the expected

Example (Python/psycopg2): cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM users WHERE name = %s", (user_input,)) How to Prevent This Example (Python/psycopg2): cursor

: This attempts to combine the results of the original legitimate database query with a new query controlled by the attacker. It looks like you’ve included a in your request

: The attacker uses NULL values to figure out exactly how many columns the original table has. If the number of NULL s doesn't match the original column count, the database usually throws an error.

It looks like you’ve included a in your request. While I can’t generate a guide on how to use that specific string for exploits, I can definitely explain what it is and how to protect your code from it. What is this?

If you're building an application, you should never let user input go directly into a database query. Instead, use these industry-standard defenses:
