MartinFowler article is not for mortals, everything else just words positioned in a very confusing way. I have surfed over THIRTY articles, where people either tell "Spring doesn't directly supports for interface injection"("and because I don't know exactly how I will only describe setter and constructor injections") or either "I will discuss it in my other threads" or either there will be few comments below saying that it is wrong example. I don't ask for explanation, I BEG for example.
So there are only two variants of DI. So if documentation says nothing about interface injection, its clear that its not there. Those who believe that interface injection is done by providing setter method in interface answer me:
I think, that the confusion around interface injection is caused by missunderstanding what the term "interface injection" actually means. In my understanding, interface injection describes the ability of a bean contener to inject a new interface to the bean, no matter that the class definition of this bean is not implementing it.
All examples presented here show how to create a bean out of concrete class, and then how to inject it into another bean. The fact, that in all cases bean is injected into a field defined as an interface does not matter- all operations are done with beans created out of concrete instances.
As you see here, it is even possible to create a bean out of interface! Still, it is not a interface injection, as IoC contener initializes instanse of this bean by its own. In other words, card bean is an initialized object, not an interface, what makes, that the selected answer for this question is correct.
If you're familiar with the basic concepts behind SQLi vulnerabilities and want to practice exploiting them on some realistic, deliberately vulnerable targets, you can access labs in this topic from the link below.
In some situations, an attacker can escalate a SQL injection attack to compromise the underlying server or other back-end infrastructure. It can also enable them to perform denial-of-service attacks.
SQL injection attacks have been used in many high-profile data breaches over the years. These have caused reputational damage and regulatory fines. In some cases, an attacker can obtain a persistent backdoor into an organization's systems, leading to a long-term compromise that can go unnoticed for an extended period.
Crucially, note that -- is a comment indicator in SQL. This means that the rest of the query is interpreted as a comment, effectively removing it. In this example, this means the query no longer includes AND released = 1. As a result, all products are displayed, including those that are not yet released.
Take care when injecting the condition OR 1=1 into a SQL query. Even if it appears to be harmless in the context you're injecting into, it's common for applications to use data from a single request in multiple different queries. If your condition reaches an UPDATE or DELETE statement, for example, it can result in an accidental loss of data.
Imagine an application that lets users log in with a username and password. If a user submits the username wiener and the password bluecheese, the application checks the credentials by performing the following SQL query:
In this case, an attacker can log in as any user without the need for a password. They can do this using the SQL comment sequence -- to remove the password check from the WHERE clause of the query. For example, submitting the username administrator'-- and a blank password results in the following query:
In cases where the application responds with the results of a SQL query, an attacker can use a SQL injection vulnerability to retrieve data from other tables within the database. You can use the UNION keyword to execute an additional SELECT query and append the results to the original query.
Many instances of SQL injection are blind vulnerabilities. This means that the application does not return the results of the SQL query or the details of any database errors within its responses. Blind vulnerabilities can still be exploited to access unauthorized data, but the techniques involved are generally more complicated and difficult to perform.
Second-order SQL injection occurs when the application takes user input from an HTTP request and stores it for future use. This is usually done by placing the input into a database, but no vulnerability occurs at the point where the data is stored. Later, when handling a different HTTP request, the application retrieves the stored data and incorporates it into a SQL query in an unsafe way. For this reason, second-order SQL injection is also known as stored SQL injection.
Second-order SQL injection often occurs in situations where developers are aware of SQL injection vulnerabilities, and so safely handle the initial placement of the input into the database. When the data is later processed, it is deemed to be safe, since it was previously placed into the database safely. At this point, the data is handled in an unsafe way, because the developer wrongly deems it to be trusted.
Some core features of the SQL language are implemented in the same way across popular database platforms, and so many ways of detecting and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities work identically on different types of database.
You can query the version details for the database. Different methods work for different database types. This means that if you find a particular method that works, you can infer the database type. For example, on Oracle you can execute:
In the previous labs, you used the query string to inject your malicious SQL payload. However, you can perform SQL injection attacks using any controllable input that is processed as a SQL query by the application. For example, some websites take input in JSON or XML format and use this to query the database.
These different formats may provide different ways for you to obfuscate attacks that are otherwise blocked due to WAFs and other defense mechanisms. Weak implementations often look for common SQL injection keywords within the request, so you may be able to bypass these filters by encoding or escaping characters in the prohibited keywords. For example, the following XML-based SQL injection uses an XML escape sequence to encode the S character in SELECT:
For a parameterized query to be effective in preventing SQL injection, the string that is used in the query must always be a hard-coded constant. It must never contain any variable data from any origin. Do not be tempted to decide case-by-case whether an item of data is trusted, and continue using string concatenation within the query for cases that are considered safe. It's easy to make mistakes about the possible origin of data, or for changes in other code to taint trusted data.
Frequently these interpreters run with a lot of access, so a successfulattack can easily result in significant data breaches, or even loss ofcontrol of a browser, application, or server. Taken together, injectionattacks are a huge percentage of the serious application security risk.Many organizations have poorly thought through security controls inplace to prevent injection attacks. Vague recommendations for inputvalidation and output encoding are not going to prevent these flaws.Instead, we recommend a strong set of controls integrated into yourapplication frameworks. The goal is to make injections impossible fordevelopers.
Injection can be complex. The subtleties of data flow, parsers,contexts, capabilities, and escaping are overwhelming even for securityspecialists. In the following sections we will outline these topics tomake it clear how injection can happen in a variety of differenttechnologies.
Untrusted data is most often data that comes from the HTTP request, inthe form of URL parameters, form fields, headers, or cookies. But datathat comes from databases, web services, and other sources is frequentlyuntrusted from a security perspective. That is, untrusted data is inputthat can be manipulated to contain a web attack payload. The OWASP CodeReview Guide has a decentlist of methods that return untrusted data in various languages, but youshould be careful about your own methods as well.
Untrusted data should always be treated as though it contains an attack.That means you should not send it anywhere without taking steps tomake sure that any attacks are detected and neutralized. As applicationsget more and more interconnected, the likelihood of a buried attackbeing decoded or executed by a downstream interpreter increases rapidly.
As untrusted data flows through an application, it is frequently splitinto parts, combined with safe data, transformed, validated, and encodedin a variety of ways. A single piece of data could go through dozens ofthese steps before it gets to an interpreter. This makes identifyinginjection problems very difficult. Tools have a difficult time tracingthe entire data flow and understanding exactly what data can run thegauntlet and what cannot.
If you are a student of application security, you should learn as muchas you can about how real parsers work. Learn about grammars, and how toread BNF. Beware, though, that the grammar may not match theimplementation. Real world parsers have many corner cases and flaws thatmay not match the spec. A scientific approach to testing the realbehavior of a parser is the best course forward.
Injecting UP:The most common way is to close the current context andstart a new code context. For example, this is what you do when youclose an HTML attribute with a "\> and start a newtag. This attack closes the original context (going up in the hierarchy)and then starts a new tag that will allow script code to execute.Remember that you may be able to skip many layers up in the hierarchywhen trying to break out of your current context. For example, atag may be able to terminate a script block even if it is injectedinside a quoted string inside a method call inside the script. Thishappens because the HTML parser runs before the JavaScript parser.
