Abstract

Disclosed herein are techniques for determining vulnerabilities in applications under testing. It is determined whether a first database instruction of an application enters information into a database and whether a second database instruction thereof obtains said information from the database. If the first database instruction enters the information in the database and the second database instruction obtains the information therefrom, it is determined whether the application is vulnerable to entry of malicious code via the database.
