Fixes https://github.com/advanced-security-demo/s-samadi-ghas-demo/security/code-scanning/2
To fix the problem, we need to use SQL parameterization instead of string concatenation to construct the SQL query. This can be achieved by using the
db.Prepare
method with placeholders (?
) for the user-provided values and then passing those values as arguments to thestmt.Exec
method. This approach ensures that the user-provided data is safely embedded into the query, preventing SQL injection attacks.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
