Injection

Injection Attack

Definition

Injection attacks occur when untrusted data is sent to an interpreter as part of a command or query, allowing attackers to manipulate execution. SQL injection, OS command injection, LDAP injection, and template injection are all variants.

The OWASP Top 10 has consistently ranked injection as one of the most critical web application security risks, preventable through parameterized queries and input validation.
