He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her

On Tom Kyte’s blog , Pete Finnigan’s blog and Sven Vetter’s blog there are comments about SQL Injection in a bank application.

I know that SQL Injection is a big problem and especially the vulnerability in this banking application was really severe. But in the real world most developers write (or at least wrote) unsecure code. Often they use (unsecure) samples from books. But who is writing the books?
Why do you blame this poor little bank. Don’t throw the first stone…
Let’s do some quick check how secure the code from other people or companies (e.g. intelligence agencies) is…

Expert One-on-One by Tom Kyte from 2001. 2 years after SQL Injection became public.
p. 707:
create or replace

return number
is

l_columnvalue number default NULL;
l_status integer;
l_update long;
begin
l_update := ‘update ‘ || p_owner || ‘.dept
set dname = :bv1, loc = :bv2
where deptno = to_number(:pk)
returning rowid into :out’;
l_theCursor := dbms_sql.open_cursor;
More code with SQL Injection (not complete I just skimmed through the book):

p710: execute immediate ’select count(*) from ‘||p_tname’
p710: execute immediate ‘update ‘||p_owner||’.dept…’

p712, p724, p726, p727, p728, p729, 1087. I stopped her…
