If your DB library is inserting the parameters in a text query before sending it off to the server to be parsed as arbitrary SQL, that&amp;#x27;s not a parametrized query, but just fake smoke and mirrors.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Finding an authorization bypass on my own website</title><url>https://maxwelldulin.com/BlogPost?post=9185867776</url></story>

&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
Without looking at the implementation details, I would expect this code to throw an exception. A &amp;quot;garbage in, garbage out&amp;quot; philosophy seems dangerous for a SQL statement.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Finding an authorization bypass on my own website</title><url>https://maxwelldulin.com/BlogPost?post=9185867776</url></story>
