SQL injection attack consists of insertion or "injection" of either a partial or complete SQL query via the data input or transmitted from the client (browser) to the web application.
A successful SQL injection attack can:
i)Read sensitive data from the database
ii)Modify database data (insert/update/delete)
iii)Execute administration operations on the database (such as shutdown the DBMS) iV)Recover the content of a given file existing on the DBMS file system or write files into the file system v)Issue commands to the operating system
Pen tester needs to perform various tests to detect SQL injection vulnerability. He has to make a list of all input fields whose values could be used in crafting a
SQL query, including the hidden fields of POST requests and then test them separately, trying to interfere with the query and to generate an error.
In which of the following tests is the source code of the application tested in a non-runtime environment to detect the SQL injection vulnerabilities?
