Like clause and sql injection
I am having a doubt about this situation.
I've a query like this within a Stored Procedure:
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table1
WHERE column1 like '%' + @column1 + '%'
My question is, this is vulnerable to SQL Injection? Do I need开发者_如何学JAVA to change this to something like this: (?)
declare @column1Like nvarchar(200);
@column1Like = '%' + @column1 + '%'
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table1
WHERE column1 like @column1Like
Regards
The quick answer is no. To be vulnerable to SQL injection one must be using dynamic SQL execution.
This would be vulnerable:
EXECUTE ('SELECT column1, column2 FROM table1 WHERE column1 like ' + @column1Like);
That also means there is no real difference between both of your examples (from a security standpoint at least).
Like is no different from =
or any other predicate.
However the user can inject additionnal wildcard characters (%
, _
) in the pattern; if that matters.
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table1
WHERE column1 like '%' + @column1 + '%'
Since this query only works with variables, it has no place to put code instead of data and hence is not vulnerable to SQL
injection.
I am of course assuming that @column1
here is an SQL Server
variable and you are using parametrized query functionality in your client-side language to bind a value to it.
It is not vulnerable since it already is a string value in the SQL space. Although, it could break the query.
Your query is not vulnerable to SQL injection in either case because you are using a parameterized query.
I think it is vulnerable, for example :
'%' or 1=1--
will show all registers of the database if you don´t format it like @column1Like
.
In this case, I think it´s the same than (@column1Like= ''
or @column1Like is null
)
but you must think another examples like
'%' union select SELECT `column11`, `column22`
FROM table2 where `colum11` -- is the same type than `column1`
--and `column22` is the same type than `column22`.
