Protecting Your MySQL Database From SQL Injection Attacks With GreenSQL

LinuxSecurity.com: SQL injection attacks can allow hackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands on your database through your Web site. To avoid these attacks, every piece of data supplied by a user on a Web form, through HTTP Post or CGI parameters, or other means, must be validated to not contain information that is not expected. GreenSQL is a firewall for SQL -- it sits between your Web site and MySQL database and decides which SQL statements should and should not be executed. At least that's the idea -- in execution, I found some open doors. Do you want to know how you can protect your website's MySQL server from SQL injection attacks? Then read the following article which reviews GreenSQL, a proxy which guards against these types of attacks.
