Hi,
The problem with this approach is that the content is most likely
loaded in by the PHP preprocessor, and it will not usually go back and
parse any code inserted. Consider this pseudocode:
print ("print(\"World\")")
The preprocessor will print the string print("World") but it will not
execute the text string as if it were code. The same is true if the
text string is retrieved from a database and not a literal.
print("<img src=\"" . getImageNameFromDB() . "\">")
What you have is an opportunity for cross-site scripting, not PHP code
injection.
Regards,
Jim
