Secure Code Snippets for Each Vulnerability

Welcome to the Secure Code Snippets for Each Vulnerability repository! This project provides secure code examples for various common vulnerabilities across multiple programming languages. The goal is to help developers understand how to handle these vulnerabilities securely and avoid potential security issues in their applications.

Overview

This repository contains code examples that illustrate both insecure and secure practices for handling common vulnerabilities, including:

• SQL Injection
• Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
• Command Injection

For each vulnerability, you will find examples in different programming languages to demonstrate how to properly handle these issues.

Contributing

We welcome contributions from the community to improve and expand this repository. If you would like to contribute, please follow these steps:

1. Fork the Repository: Create a personal copy of the repository on GitHub.
2. Clone Your Fork: Clone your fork to your local machine.
3. Create a Branch: Create a new branch for your changes.
4. Make Changes: Add or update code snippets and documentation.
5. Commit and Push: Commit your changes and push them to your fork.
6. Create a Pull Request: Open a pull request with a clear description of your changes.

Contribution Guidelines

• Accuracy: Ensure that your code examples are correct and follow secure coding practices.
• Consistency: Follow the existing structure and formatting for consistency.
• Clarity: Provide clear explanations for both insecure and secure code snippets.

Best Practices

• Use Parameterized Queries: Always use parameterized queries or prepared statements for database interactions to prevent SQL Injection.
• Sanitize Input: Validate and sanitize user inputs to protect against XSS and command injection attacks.
• Update Dependencies: Keep your dependencies up-to-date to include the latest security patches.
