Documentation

A rule statement that inspects for malicious SQL code. Attackers insert malicious SQL code into web requests to do things like modify your database or extract data from it.

See: newSqliMatchStatement smart constructor.

Create a value of SqliMatchStatement with all optional fields omitted.

Use generic-lens or optics to modify other optional fields.

The following record fields are available, with the corresponding lenses provided for backwards compatibility:

$sel:sensitivityLevel:SqliMatchStatement', sqliMatchStatement_sensitivityLevel - The sensitivity that you want WAF to use to inspect for SQL injection attacks.

HIGH detects more attacks, but might generate more false positives, especially if your web requests frequently contain unusual strings. For information about identifying and mitigating false positives, see Testing and tuning in the WAF Developer Guide.

LOW is generally a better choice for resources that already have other protections against SQL injection attacks or that have a low tolerance for false positives.

Default: LOW

$sel:fieldToMatch:SqliMatchStatement', sqliMatchStatement_fieldToMatch - The part of the web request that you want WAF to inspect.

$sel:textTransformations:SqliMatchStatement', sqliMatchStatement_textTransformations - Text transformations eliminate some of the unusual formatting that attackers use in web requests in an effort to bypass detection. If you specify one or more transformations in a rule statement, WAF performs all transformations on the content of the request component identified by FieldToMatch, starting from the lowest priority setting, before inspecting the content for a match.
