SQL Smuggling

Avi Douglen

Defines SQL Smuggling: injection that survives validation because the database reinterprets input after the check. The new vector is Unicode homoglyph best-fit folding — U+02BC (%CA%BC) passes a quote filter or WAF, then SQL Server 2005 folds it to a real apostrophe inside a varchar parameter, breaking out of a dynamic-SQL stored procedure. Also covers MySQL backslash escaping.
