Hi Ahmed,

        No need to type in caps :)

        Of course, simply changing programming languages won't help at
all; sql injection doesn't care about language it's based on the lack of
validation on input. If they use .NET and force all sql-used inputs to
be validated appropriately then there will be no more issue with SQL
Injection, however simply changing languages *will not help at all*.

it from being wrong to right, or right to wrong :)

Hi all,

I did a full pen-test on my client's web application and almost I can
get all data and data dictionary information I need through exploiting
SQL injection vulnerabilities they have in many dynamic pages.

The question is when I discussed these issues with IT people  they
recommend 
not to solve any of them but just converting to   .Net technology I'm
not 
familiar with Net tech. but this recommendation  sounds weird to me IS
THERE ANY WAY TO PROVE THAT THEIR RECOMMENDATION IS NOT ENOUGH TO
PREVERT UNAUTHRIZED ACCESS THROUGH SQL INJECTION (their platform  IIS
,SQL Server and Oracle )


Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
