Hello OpenCart community,
I am currently setting up an OpenCart store and while I am making good progress, I am concerned about the security aspect, particularly SQL injection attacks which are quite prevalent. I want to ensure that my store is fortified against such vulnerabilities.
Preventive Measures: Could you please share the preventive measures I can take to secure my OpenCart store against SQL injection attacks? Are there any configurations or settings in OpenCart that can be tweaked to enhance security?
Plugins and Extensions: Are there any plugins or extensions available that can help in securing the database? If yes, could you recommend some reliable ones?
Best Practices: Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could share some best practices for maintaining database security. What are the routine checks that I should perform to ensure ongoing security?
Resources and Guides: Lastly, could you point me to any resources, guides, or tutorials that provide detailed information on this topic?
Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to learning from your experiences and insights.
You did not mention anything of real Value, such as the OC Version you use as well as Extensions added...
My Github OC Site: https://github.com/IP-CAM
5'600 + FREE OC Extensions, on the World's largest private Github OC Repository Archive Site.
There are no known SQL injection vulnerabilities for OpenCart.

In terms of your second question about inputting validation and sanitization, OpenCart has built-in functions like $this->db->escape() and $this->db->escapeStr() that can be used for sanitizing user input. You can use it. I believe in these functions.KrewNoah wrote: ↑Fri Sep 08, 2023 11:49 amHello OpenCart community,
