Preventing SQL Injection
How to do that?
Well,
- Always use prepared statements or parameterized queries when interacting with databases.
- Avoid string concatenation for SQL queries at all costs.
- Regularly audit your database queries for potential SQL injection vulnerabilities.
Example:
const query = 'SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ?';
connection.query(query, [username], (err, results) => {
// Handle results
});
