protected function Connection::filterComment in Zircon Profile 8.0
Same name and namespace in other branches
- 8 core/lib/Drupal/Core/Database/Connection.php \Drupal\Core\Database\Connection::filterComment()
Sanitize a query comment string.
Ensure a query comment does not include strings such as "* /" that might terminate the comment early. This avoids SQL injection attacks via the query comment. The comment strings in this example are separated by a space to avoid PHP parse errors.
For example, the comment:
db_update('example')
->condition('id', $id)
->fields(array(
'field2' => 10,
))
->comment('Exploit * / DROP TABLE node; --')
->execute();
Would result in the following SQL statement being generated:
"/ * Exploit * / DROP TABLE node. -- * / UPDATE example SET field2=...";
Unless the comment is sanitised first, the SQL server would drop the node table and ignore the rest of the SQL statement.
Parameters
string $comment: A query comment string.
Return value
string A sanitized version of the query comment string.
