How to avoid jail: "I`ve given myself the permission"
the intro had "<computerphile>" and the outro "</computerphile>"... smart... love the attention to detail
Decades ago, my brother named his bowling team "select *". This was in the early days of computers, so there wasn't modern security. The bowling alley printed the statistics, and when his team arrived, the employee presented an entire ream of paper and demanded they choose a different name.
The interviewer thought the text editor was already the hacking part
I love how he explains things non-pretentiously. It seems a lot of people in the computing field really like to think they're better than everyone else.
Imagine naming your child "LIKE'%' UNION SELECT * FROM TABLEBASE" so that when they register its name, you'll get the information on all of the country's database
Me: Can I SQL Injection Attack your website Me:Sure
alright youtube, this has been in my recommended for 2 years now, ill watch it, you win.
It’s crazy how different my understanding of this video is since the first time I watched it. I watched it back in high school, now I’m halfway through a university degree and have taken web development courses... Funky.
Instructions unclear, NSA is outside my house.
Thank you Peter Parker
..what is illegal? running sql attack or making shitty web apps? Coz my real name is "'; DROP table users; SELECT '"
I'm only halfway through the video, Its easy to understand what he is trying to say due to those practical examples in a simplified way. Its half a decade old and still best videos to watch out for on this topic.
Imagine explaining that to inmates in jail: "I... I... put the wrong text in a database on purpose". Inmates be like: "Somebody get me a restriction order, you ain't coming 5 cells away from me, what is wrong with you!"
So the best defense is to disable the "Search" box
This is a very well done demonstration! I liked being able to see how it worked in an actual example. Someone ran one of those scripts on my site to try to hack my database a couple years ago. The only thing it helped me realize is that I needed stronger spam protection, because it left thousands of failed injection comments on one of my pages, haha.
The hacking videos are the best and most interesting for me as comp science student. Keep them coming!
This is the best explanation of SQL injection video ever. I've recommended it to a non-technical friend and he got the info-sec job.
The whole computerphile series is just great. Much that I can only see through here, although I speak only moderately English. Your enthusiasm and your fascination for the topic leaves even a slightly boring topic to last interesting. And that with every clip.
