Re: Looking for exploits on my server.
Thanks for the suggestions on MariaDB. So all the MySQL commands will just work? There might be some special MariaDB specific commands, but at least all the MySQL commands will work?
I almost went for the fully self-managed server option but I really struggle with the DNS stuff. I've read up on how to set records more than a few times but I always get really confused for some reason. I don't think I'll ever fully understand those dang records.
Glad to know PHPMyAdmin is secure, even though it's outdated.
So, we've talked a bit about SQL Injection and someone said just write good code. What would be a good example of badly written code? Like maybe when someone creates an account, I don't check for special characters and somehow a person enters a name and a MySQL command and my PHP code might come to some delimiter or special char and think that's their name, and then execute the MySQL code?
Like,
username: SporkSchivago;!*DELETE MYSQL STUFF!
?
