Description: Function injection is a type of cyber attack where an attacker inserts malicious code into a function call within an application. This type of vulnerability occurs when an application does not properly validate user inputs, allowing unauthorized code to execute. Function injection can have severe consequences, such as executing unwanted commands, unauthorized access to sensitive data, or altering the application’s behavior. This attack relies on manipulating an application’s functions, exploiting the lack of adequate security controls. Function injection is particularly dangerous in various types of applications, where user interactions are common and inputs can be easily manipulated. Preventing this type of attack requires implementing secure coding practices, such as input validation and sanitization, as well as using defensive programming techniques. Awareness of security and training for developers are essential to mitigate the risk of function injection and protect the integrity of applications.
