"What is a SQL injection? A SQL injection attack is an attack in which a code that attacks the database is inserted into a web site. It’s one of the most common types of web application security vulnerabilities. So it’s better to be prepared, or at least well informed SQL injections can have an immediate (first-order attacks) and delayed effect (second-order attacks) In the first-order attacks, the attacker accomplishes the desired effect immediately. A SQL injection attack inserts a code directly into the input variables that are concatenated using SQL commands and then executed. It means that your data or objects are instantly deleted, or credit card numbers and security codes instantly emailed to the attacker. Spooky, right? In the second-order attacks, the attacker injects a code into the strings which are stored in tables as metadata. These strings are later concatenated and executed. You might not be aware of the attack for days or even weeks We are not going to show how to protect your database from SQL injections. We will help you figure out what has happened and how to recover your data How to recognize that you’ve been under a SQL injection attack? In case of a second-order attack, the suspicious activity is not obvious yet. All the data and objects are still in your database, there are no performance issues, and no credit card owners have complained yet. But, even if there is something wrong with the database performance or data itself, how can you be sure it’s caused by an external attacker and not by a sloppy colleague (not that it will help much)? How to know what has been changed? And most importantly – how to mend the damage? We cannot snatch the credit card info from the attacker, but we can help you recover deleted data and bring the objects back to their original state To check whether you’re under a SQL injection attack, go through the steps listed here: Checklist for suspicious activity on the SQL Server How to recover deleted and damaged data? ApexSQL Log is an auditing and recovery tool for SQL Server databases which reads transaction logs, transaction log backups, detached transaction logs and database backups, and audits, reverts or replays data and object changes that have affected the database, including the ones that have occurred before the product was installed To recover deleted and updated data and to remove newly inserted data as a result of a SQL injection, use ApexSQL Log- Start ApexSQL Log
- Connect to the database
- If you have any transaction log backups and/or detached transaction logs made before the SQL injection occurred, you can add them in this step
- To add detached transaction logs click ""Add file""
- Select the needed transaction log backups or detached transaction logs and click ""Next""
- Use the ""Filter"" tab, ""Time range"" filter to narrow down the recovery to the time when the SQL injection occurred
- On the ""filter"" setup tab, select ""Data operations (DML)"" to audit only the data changes – inserts, updates and deletes. Uncheck ""Schema operations (DDL)"" and the object changes will not be audited
- If possible, use the Users, Operations and Field values filters to narrow down the results
- To increase the performance and quality of the audit trail data, add database backups
- Click ""Finish""
- To create the Undo script:
- Click ""Undo"" on the Home tab, in the Actions group to create the Undo script for all transactions shown in the grid
- Check the transactions you want to create the Undo script for, right click in the Main grid and click Undo in the context menu to create the Undo script only for the selected transactions
- Execute the script against the database
- Start ApexSQL Recover
- As you don't know which statement caused the data loss, use all ""Data recovery"" options, one after another
- If you have transaction log backups or detached transaction logs created before the SQL injection, click ""Add transaction logs"" to add them. In case there were many transactions on the database after the data was lost, the information about the lost data might not exist in the online transaction log anymore. By adding these additional sources, you will provide the necessary information about the transactions that removed the data from your database This option is available only for the DELETE and DROP TABLE options. If additional sources are not available, select ""additional transaction logs are available"" and go to step #4
- Add a sequence of transaction log backups that end with the online transaction log using ""Add""
- Add detached transaction logs using ""Add""
- Select the time when the data was lost. This will narrow down the results only to the records you want to recover. You don’t want to insert the data you have deleted before the SQL injection If you’re not sure when this was, select ""Date and time are unknown""
- Select the table(s) from which the data was lost. Check out your database structure to find out if the tables you want to recover have any relationships. Make sure that all tables that depend on the tables being recovered are also selected, to avoid problems with re-inserting dependent data
- Select ""Save recovery script to file"" to create a redo T-SQL script that will insert all the recovered records. You can review and modify the script before you execute it
