  2. LDAP injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LDAP_injection

    The input validation should verify the input by checking for the presence of special characters that are a part of the LDAP query language, known data types, legal values, etc. [2] White list input validation can also be used to detect unauthorized input before it is passed to the LDAP query.

  3. Improper input validation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Improper_input_validation

    Improper input validation [1] or unchecked user input is a type of vulnerability in computer software that may be used for security exploits. [2] This vulnerability is caused when "[t]he product does not validate or incorrectly validates input that can affect the control flow or data flow of a program." [1] Examples include: Buffer overflow

  4. Code injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_injection

    Code injection is a computer security exploit where a program fails to correctly process external data, such as user input, causing it to interpret the data as executable commands. An attacker using this method "injects" code into the program while it is running.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting

    User input (including an XSS vector) would be sent to the server, and then sent back to the user as a web page. The need for an improved user experience resulted in popularity of applications that had a majority of the presentation logic (maybe written in JavaScript) working on the client-side that pulled data, on-demand, from the server using ...

  6. Static application security testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_application...

    Following the flow of data between all the components of an application or group of applications allows validation of required calls to dedicated procedures for sanitization and that proper actions are taken to taint data in specific pieces of code. [12] [13]

  7. Code sanitizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_sanitizer

    A code sanitizer is a programming tool that detects bugs in the form of undefined or suspicious behavior by a compiler inserting instrumentation code at runtime. The class of tools was first introduced by Google's AddressSanitizer (or ASan) of 2012, which uses directly mapped shadow memory to detect memory corruption such as buffer overflows or accesses to a dangling pointer (use-after-free).

  9. Taint checking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taint_checking

    The concept behind taint checking is that any variable that can be modified by an outside user (for example a variable set by a field in a web form) poses a potential security risk. If that variable is used in an expression that sets a second variable, that second variable is now also suspicious. The taint checking tool can then proceed ...
