QueryParam Scanner v0.8 (RC)

DESCRIPTION

QueryParam Scanner (qpScanner) is a tool designed to identify possible SQL injection risks in CFML queries, by highlighting instances of unparameterised variables.

STATUS

This is a release candidate of qpScanner, see master branch for stable release.

Version: v0.8 (RC) Released: 2013-06-29

To check latest release, visit http://sorcerersisle.com/projects:qpscanner.html

REQUIREMENTS

qpScanner can scan code written for any CFML engine, but itself requires at least ColdFusion 9 or Railo 3.x to run.

To run qpScanner on older CFML engines, try v0.7.3 instead - this is available on branch 0.7.3 or for download from https://github.com/boughtonp/qpscanner/tags

INSTALLATION

Extract all files to a directory in your webroot, then access that directory in a browser.

Everything required is contained within the zip file; no mappings nor datasources need to be setup.

ECLIPSE PLUGIN INSTALLATION

There is a separately available plugin for the Eclipse IDE, allowing qpScanner to be executed against specific files or directories.

For more details on this plugin, check the info provided at:

http://sorcerersisle.com/projects:qpscanner.html#EclipsePlugin

USAGE

Upon accessing qpScanner you will see a simple form:

Directory
	The location of the code you wish to scan.
	This can be either an absolute path or a mapping.

Recurse?
	Select yes if you want qpScanner to look inside sub-directories, 
	or no to only scan the files directly in the specified directory.

Once these are set as appropriate, press Scan and qpScanner will get to work.

It will look for queries with CF variables (ie: #values_in_hashes#) that are not inside a cfqueryparam tag, and - once complete - will list how many were found out of how many total queries, and provide a list of files and queries.

NOTE: QueryParam Scanner should be used only in your development environment, not on a live/public box. In addition to the security risks, it might have an adverse affect on performance.
