Scenario: A colleague suggests using plain SQL statements instead of parameterized queries for simplicity. What would you advise them regarding SQL injection risks?
- Advise against using plain SQL statements
- Encourage using input validation
- Recommend using stored procedures
- Suggest using a web application firewall
Using plain SQL statements exposes the application to SQL injection vulnerabilities. Parameterized queries provide a more robust defense against such attacks. Recommending stored procedures can be a good practice, but it's not as directly related to preventing SQL injection as parameterized queries. Web application firewalls and input validation are important layers of defense but should not replace proper SQL injection prevention measures.
