<h1>Security</h1> |
|
59 |
||
60 |
<p>This page describes some "best practices" regarding web security, and details |
|
61 |
CodeIgniter's internal security features.</p> |
|
62 |
||
63 |
||
64 |
<h2>URI Security</h2> |
|
65 |
||
66 |
<p>CodeIgniter is fairly restrictive regarding which characters it allows in your URI strings in order to help |
|
67 |
minimize the possibility that malicious data can be passed to your application. URIs may only contain the following: |
|
68 |
</p> |
|
69 |
||
70 |
<ul> |
|
71 |
<li>Alpha-numeric text</li> |
|
72 |
<li>Tilde: ~ </li> |
|
73 |
<li>Period: .</li> |
|
74 |
<li>Colon: :</li> |
|
75 |
<li>Underscore: _</li> |
|
76 |
<li>Dash: -</li> |
|
77 |
</ul> |
|
78 |
||
79 |
<h2>Register_globals</h2> |
|
80 |
||
81 |
<p>During system initialization all global variables are unset, except those found in the $_GET, $_POST, and $_COOKIE arrays. The unsetting |
|
82 |
routine is effectively the same as register_globals = off.</p> |
|
83 |
||
84 |
<a name="error_reporting"></a> |
|
85 |
<h2>error_reporting</h2> |
|
86 |
||
87 |
<p> |
|
88 |
In production environments, it is typically desirable to disable PHP's |
|
89 |
error reporting by setting the internal error_reporting flag to a value of 0. This disables native PHP |
|
90 |
errors from being rendered as output, which may potentially contain |
|
91 |
sensitive information. |
|
92 |
</p> |
|
93 |
||
94 |
<p> |
|
95 |
Setting CodeIgniter's <kbd>ENVIRONMENT</kbd> constant in index.php to a |
|
96 |
value of '<kbd>production</kbd>' will turn off these errors. In development |
|
97 |
mode, it is recommended that a value of '<kbd>development</kbd>' is used. |
|
98 |
More information about differentiating between environments can be found |
|
99 |
on the <a href="environments.html">Handling Environments</a> page. |
|
100 |
</p> |
|
101 |
||
102 |
<h2>magic_quotes_runtime</h2> |
|
103 |
||
104 |
<p>The magic_quotes_runtime directive is turned off during system initialization so that you don't have to remove slashes when |
|
105 |
retrieving data from your database.</p> |
|
106 |
||
107 |
<h1>Best Practices</h1> |
|
108 |
||
109 |
<p>Before accepting any data into your application, whether it be POST data from a form submission, COOKIE data, URI data, |
|
110 |
XML-RPC data, or even data from the SERVER array, you are encouraged to practice this three step approach:</p> |
|
111 |
||
112 |
<ol> |
|
113 |
<li>Filter the data as if it were tainted.</li> |
|
114 |
<li>Validate the data to ensure it conforms to the correct type, length, size, etc. (sometimes this step can replace step one)</li> |
|
115 |
<li>Escape the data before submitting it into your database.</li> |
|
116 |
</ol> |
|
117 |
||
118 |
<p>CodeIgniter provides the following functions to assist in this process:</p> |
|
119 |
||
120 |
<ul> |
|
121 |
||
122 |
<li><h2>XSS Filtering</h2> |
|
123 |
||
124 |
<p>CodeIgniter comes with a Cross Site Scripting filter. This filter looks for commonly |
|
125 |
used techniques to embed malicious Javascript into your data, or other types of code that attempt to hijack cookies |
|
126 |
or do other malicious things. The XSS Filter is described <a href="../libraries/security.html">here</a>. |
|
127 |
</p> |
|
128 |
</li> |
|
129 |
||
130 |
<li><h2>Validate the data</h2> |
|
131 |
||
132 |
<p>CodeIgniter has a <a href="../libraries/form_validation.html">Form Validation Class</a> that assists you in validating, filtering, and prepping |
|
133 |
your data.</p> |
|
134 |
</li> |
|
135 |
||
136 |
<li><h2>Escape all data before database insertion</h2> |
|
137 |
||
138 |
<p>Never insert information into your database without escaping it. Please see the section that discusses |
|
139 |
<a href="../database/queries.html">queries</a> for more information.</p> |
|
140 |
||
141 |
</li> |
|
142 |
||
143 |
</ul> |
