Demo
SQL Injection Demo
- In this demo, the Database Schema is displayed first
- Later, 4 sets of Login credentials are tested:
- Correct credentials present in the user database
- Wrong credentials to show the failure message
- First SQL Injection example is demonstrated
- Later the Second SQL Injection example is demonstrated

Navbar Demo
- In this demo, the Navigation bar is demonstrated

What’s unique in this Project
- The project is deployed as Microservices of Front-end, Server, and Database using Heroku Cloud Platfrom
- Demostrates SQL Injection in an elegant way using LAMP stack
- Follows best practices and code readability
What’s SQL Injection
- SQL injection is an attack used to take over database servers by dynamically poisoning SQL queries.
- SQL injection is a cybersecurity vulnerability where attackers input malicious SQL (Structured Query Language) code into a web application’s input fields.
- If the application doesn’t properly validate or sanitize the input, it can execute unintended database commands.
- This can lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or manipulation of the database.
- To prevent SQL injection, developers should use parameterized queries or prepared statements and validate user inputs.
- Security measures like input validation and output encoding are crucial to mitigate this risk.
- In this attack, a special SQL query is passed as user input to the login page.
- Later, when the backend code compiles the input along with the SQL query.
- The code then gets hijacked because these queries will change the meaning of the backend code.
- The SQL injection queries used for this demonstration project are:
' or 1=1--
- This query will change all the SQL statements to always be true because of the or keyword.
- And the rest of the SQL statement after
'--'
will be commented. admin' or '1'='1
- This query will change all the SQL statements and will also always be true. Because of the
or
keyword, the two expressions produce true values.
