    To address SQL injection vulnerabilities, the document recommends: 1) using prepared statements with placeholders to bind user input, 2) employing stored procedures while avoiding dynamic SQL inside, 3) whitelisting input by validating format/type/length, and 4) escaping all user input as a last resort, as it is less secure than prepared statements. The recommendations aim to prevent attackers from changing queries by separating user input from SQL commands.

    To address SQL injection vulnerabilities in your application, consider the following recommendations:

    1. Use Prepared Statements (Parameterized Queries):


    o Prepared statements ensure that an attacker cannot change the intent of a query, even if SQL
    commands are inserted by an attacker.
    o In many programming languages, this is achieved using placeholders within the SQL query,
    and then binding the input to these placeholders.
    2. Employ Stored Procedures:
    o Stored procedures can encapsulate the SQL logic on the server side and offer a layer of
    protection against SQL injection.
    o However, they are not immune to SQL injection if dynamic SQL generation is used inside
    these procedures.
    3. Whitelist Input Validation:
    o Validate all input data by defining a strict pattern that the data must adhere to. This could
    include length, format, and type.
    o Reject any input that does not strictly conform to these specifications.
    4. Escape All User-Supplied Input:
    o If you must use dynamic SQL, use proper escaping routines for the database you are
    working with.
    o However, note that escaping alone is less secure than using prepared statements.
