I am learning the XPath injection technique. To bypass authentication,
we give a string like:
hi' or 1=1 or 'hey'='hello
I noticed that the equivalent string in SQL Injection would have been shorter:
hi' or 1=1--
I understand that XPath does not have comments, so we cannot use the
-- technique to comment out the rest of the query. But how does that
additional OR clause with 'hey'='hello solve the problem too?
Thank-you,
Anne
