SQL Injection

Summary : SQL injection is a web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to interfere with the queries that an application makes to its database. It generally allows an attacker to view data that they are not normally able to retrieve. This might include data belonging to other users, or any other data that the application itself is able to access. In many cases, an attacker can modify or delete this data, causing persistent changes to the application's content or behavior.

Severity :   High  

POST Request : 

Complexity : Easy 

From : Remote / External

Steps to Reproduce:

2. Attacker sends a query to retreive the DB Version or DB Name or DB Tables
3. Attacker is able to perfrom successfull SQLi

Impact : An Adversary can carry out SQLi attack to download database,usernames,passwords modify the logic or  perform sensitive actions etc.
