    <p>This module manages database connections, in a manner
 | 
						||
    optimised for the platform.  On non-threaded platforms,
 | 
						||
    it provides a persistent connection in the manner of
 | 
						||
    classic LAMP (Linux, Apache, Mysql, Perl/PHP/Python).
 | 
						||
    On threaded platform, it provides an altogether more
 | 
						||
    scalable and efficient <em>connection pool</em>, as
 | 
						||
    described in <a href="http://www.apachetutor.org/dev/reslist">this
 |

    article at ApacheTutor</a>.  Note that <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dbd.html">mod_dbd</a></code>

<h2><a name="prepared" id="prepared">SQL Prepared Statements</a></h2>
 | 
						||
    <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dbd.html">mod_dbd</a></code> supports SQL prepared statements on behalf
 | 
						||
    of modules that may wish to use them.  Each prepared statement
 | 
						||
    must be assigned a name (label), and they are stored in a hash:
 | 
						||
    the <code>prepared</code> field of an <code>ap_dbd_t</code>.
 | 
						||
    Hash entries are of type <code>apr_dbd_prepared_t</code>
 | 
						||
    and can be used in any of the apr_dbd prepared statement
 | 
						||
    SQL query or select commands.</p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
    <p>It is up to dbd user modules to use the prepared statements
 | 
						||
    and document what statements can be specified in httpd.conf,
 | 
						||
    or to provide their own directives and use <code>ap_dbd_prepare</code>.</p>

<h2><a name="security" id="security">SECURITY WARNING</a></h2>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
    <p>Any web/database application needs to secure itself against SQL
 | 
						||
    injection attacks.  In most cases, Apache DBD is safe, because
 | 
						||
    applications use prepared statements, and untrusted inputs are
 | 
						||
    only ever used as data.  Of course, if you use it via third-party
 | 
						||
    modules, you should ascertain what precautions they may require.</p>
 | 
						||
    <p>However, the <var>FreeTDS</var> driver is inherently
 | 
						||
    <strong>unsafe</strong>.  The underlying library doesn't support
 | 
						||
    prepared statements, so the driver emulates them, and the
 | 
						||
    untrusted input is merged into the SQL statement.</p>
 | 
						||
    <p>It can be made safe by <em>untainting</em> all inputs:
 | 
						||
    a process inspired by Perl's taint checking.  Each input
 | 
						||
    is matched against a regexp, and only the match is used,
 | 
						||
    according to the Perl idiom:</p>
 | 
						||
    <div class="example"><pre><code>  $untrusted =~ /([a-z]+)/;
 | 
						||
  $trusted = $1;</code></pre></div>
 | 
						||
    <p>To use this, the untainting regexps must be included in the
 | 
						||
    prepared statements configured.  The regexp follows immediately
 | 
						||
    after the % in the prepared statement, and is enclosed in
 | 
						||
    curly brackets {}.  For example, if your application expects
 | 
						||
    alphanumeric input, you can use:</p>
 | 
						||
    <div class="example"><p><code>
 | 
						||
       <code>"SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE input = %s"</code>
 | 
						||
    </code></p></div>
 | 
						||
    <p>with other drivers, and suffer nothing worse than a failed query.
 | 
						||
    But with FreeTDS you'd need:</p>
 | 
						||
    <div class="example"><p><code>
 | 
						||
       <code>"SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE input = %{([A-Za-z0-9]+)}s"</code>
 | 
						||
    </code></p></div>
 | 
						||
    <p>Now anything that doesn't match the regexp's $1 match is
 | 
						||
    discarded, so the statement is safe.</p>
 | 
						||
    <p>An alternative to this may be the third-party ODBC driver,
 | 
						||
    which offers the security of genuine prepared statements.</p>

    <p>For modules such as authentication that repeatedly use a
 | 
						||
    single SQL statement, optimum performance is achieved by preparing
 | 
						||
    the statement at startup rather than every time it is used.
 | 
						||
    This directive prepares an SQL statement and assigns it a label.</p>
