Welcome to the full schedule of the OWASP AppSec Research EU 2013 conference days. You’ll find the schedule for the training days at http://trainings2013.appsec.eu
SQL injection vulnerabilities are known for at least 15 years and still belong to the highest risk category in the OWASP TOP 10 for 2013. The problem seems not to be solved yet. A web application firewall should protect vulnerable web applications against SQL injection attacks, but distinguishing malicious SQL injections from regular human input is a hard job. Inspired by libinjection, an optimized tokenizer and parser to detect SQL injections, we combined lexical analysis of user-supplied data with smart regular expression filters. As a result of this we found a new way to reduce false positives while still efficiently detecting SQL injections.
