C# - Type Safe Objectdatasources?

Jan 23, 2011

Is there any way to make asp.net objectdatasources to be type safe. Meaning I get a compile time error if parameters or datatypes change during refactoring?Does anyone know any other method? Or can recommend any other way to do it? I find manual binding tedious. What is other people doing?

How To Type Safe SQL Parameters And Update

Feb 1, 2010

I have been in the process of updating my code with security methods, and I've been learning this from [URL](or "Security Guidelines: ASP.NET 2.0"). In the middle of the page under "When Constructing SQL Queries, Use Type Safe SQL Parameters" it says "Use type safe parameters when constructing SQL queries to avoid possible SQL injection attacks that can occur with unfiltered input".

Now, what was to use code like:

"DataSet userDataset = new DataSet();
SqlDataAdapter myCommand = new SqlDataAdapter(LoginStoredProcedure", connection);
myCommand.SelectCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
myCommand.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@au_id", SqlDbType.VarChar, 11);........"

But, I was already using code like:

"var dataSource = (SqlDataSource)form1.FindControl("sqlDataSource5") ;
dataSource.UpdateParameters.Add("someVal", val);"

So now, to use type safe parameters, I decided to include it like:

"var dataSource = (SqlDataSource)form1.FindControl("sqlDataSource5") ;
dataSource.UpdateParameters.Add("@someVal", DbType.Int16, val);
dataSource.UpdateParameters["@someVal"].Size = 1;"

So, that would be how I would modify my current code base to use type safe parameters in sql updating/inserting.

Getting to my actual question, as it was said "Use type safe parameters when constructing SQL queries to avoid possible SQL injection attacks that can occur with unfiltered input". First off, that this should apply to unfiltered input. Also, in their example they only did this for an ID.

So, what I'd like to know, when it comes to "unfiltered input", does this mean as long as the input is unfiltered I must use type safe parameters, or even filtered input shall have this (just to be sure), like, input that has been ran through a regularexpression check? Shall I do this for all values I insert/update into the database, or just IDs and important things?

The way I see it right now is that it would be a good precaution to just do type safe checks on everything (literally) that updates/inserts into the database just to be extra safe. But, I really am unsure if this is really the best idea, because if I did, would this possibly cause overprocessing of information? Can this cause too much strain on server resources?

.net - Connect Two ObjectDataSources?

Oct 26, 2010

I need to connect two ObjectDataSource tags.First will have a query string parameter and the second has a parameter, which is one of the fields in the result set of the first one. The relationship is one-to-one, so I can't put second one in a grid and use control parameter

<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="OrderObjectDataSource" runat="server"
SelectMethod="GetById"
TypeName=" MyProject.Business.Repositories.OrderRepository"[code]....

This does not work because AdvertiserObjectDataSource_OnSelecting is called before OrderObjectDataSource_OnSelected.

Is VSS 2008 Really "safe"  Was VSS 2005 "safe"?

Sep 21, 2010

There is not a clear category on the site where to post this, so giving it a shot here.

Has anyone used VS 2008? I current user Turtoise for some projects, and Source Gear Valut for others.

The company where I work is thinking about moving to VSS because of the MSDN subscription.

My experience with VSS prior to VSS 2005 was that it conied the name "Visual Source Unsafe" and I know first hand that it trashed my work more that once and I stopped using it. Source Gear Valut on the other hand is rock solid.

So is VSS 2008 Really "safe" was VSS 2005 "safe" ?

Web Config Safe From SQL Injection And XSS

Nov 12, 2010

I've a blog-driven ASP.NET website. Under the post, there is a Comment block to let readers post comments.I've used some TextBoxes and TextArea for that.To Prevent XSS:I've filtered the input by using: Server.HtmlEncode() Method (I don't care about text formatting).To Prevent SQL-Injection:I'm using Linq To SQL (that should be like parametrized queries I think!).

ArticlesDataClasses dc = new ArticlesDataClasses();
ArticleComment newComm = new ArticleComment()
{
ArticleID = int.Parse(Request.QueryString["ArticleID"]),
CommentAuthor = Server.HtmlEncode(txtName.Text),
CommentText = Server.HtmlEncode(txtComment.InnerHtml).Replace("
", "<br />"),
CommentAuthorEmail = Server.HtmlEncode(txtMail.Text),
CommentTime = DateTime.Now,
Enabled = false

MVC :: Getting Safe With ValidateInput As False?

Feb 21, 2011

I want to store certain html tags in my database to the layout of content, for example <h3> and <p> tags. The problem is with ValidateInput set to True, you get "Potential Danger error" when you try sending content with html tags.

With it set to False, you open yourself to all sorts of potential dangers. So Here is what I'm wanting to achieve:

I hope you like the image ! lol I spent 10 minutes in Photoshop to create it.

So eventhing that goes in, I want as encoded, but when I get content back, I want to decode only the <h3> and <p> tags. ! What do you think of my solution ? Bad, Good ?

C# - Is It Safe To Always Create A New HttpContextWrapper

Oct 21, 2010

I'm trying to make an existing ASP.NET web forms app more unit testable by using some of the ASP.NET MVC objects, specifically HttpContextWrapper. I've seen examples of its usage and they always create a new object. I disassembled the source with Reflector and see all it does is store the passed HttpContext. But I was curious as to whether or not it's safe to always create a new instance of HttpContextWrapper or follow the singleton pattern somehow? Below is the class I'm using in my app

public static class AppHttpContext {
public static HttpContextBase Current { get { return Getter(); } }
public static void SetContext(Func<HttpContextBase> getter) {
Getter = getter;
}
private static Func<HttpContextBase> Getter = () => new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current);
}

And I use it similar to HttpContext.Current

AppHttpContext.Current.Session["blah"] = "something";

Is It Safe To Use An HttpModule For Localization

Feb 10, 2011

I'm considering making use of an HttpModule for localization purposes (based on the example in this article) - but I'm curious, is this safe?

Here's the code, for reference:

public class CookieLocalizationModule : IHttpModule
{
public void Dispose()
{
}

[code]....

I was under the impression that multiple threads could potentially service a web request. Is it safe to set the Current/Current UI Cultures in an HttpModule like this and have it respected for the life of the web request regardless of how many threads are involved in servicing it?

Web Forms :: Options To Use Safe Popup Windows?

I am running IIS 6.0 with Asp.net 2.0. I need to use popups which are safe and not blocked by Virus Protection tools or browsers. I know about <ajaxToolkit:ModalPopupExtender> but my understanding it is only available with asp.net 3.5.

My questions are: 1. Are any other options to use safe popups, if so, what are they? 2. Is there a way to effectively install <ajaxToolkit:ModalPopupExtender> with asp.net 2.0, if so, what do I need to do?

MVC :: Create Url Safe Names For Any String In A Database?

Dec 15, 2010

Given a string in my database like "Computer Gadget", I am trying to achieve a url format like "http://xyz.com/products/details/computer-gadget" when a user clicks a link to the item "computer gadget" from a list view.In my list view for the products, I have Action links that read like this

[Code]....

When I hover over this link on the rendered page I get a link that looks like "http://xyz.com/products/details/computer+gadget"and the correct product detail is returned after I have url.decoded the string in my Details method. However, the returned page displays a url that looks like "http://xyz.com/products/details/computer%2bgadget"How can I get the returned url to show "computer-gadget" instead?Also when a name has "&" or "/" the server throws a Http 400 error message. I know these are unsafe values, but is there a way to work around this safely to allow the strings keep these characters?

Stop And Start IIS Programatically - Finding Quickly And Safe Way

Aug 17, 2010

My situation: when I deploy assemblies .NET in GAC, I get errors (Cannot access to xxx.dll because is in use for another process). The IIS use those dll (assemblies).

Which is the best way (more performance,quick and safe way) or all ways to stop, start IIS 6.0 Windows 2003 ? (for C#, .NET 3.5)

options, I think:

Detect IIS installed in machine.
Process.Start() using commands: iisreset /stop andiisreset /start
Use ServiceController class for get "World Wide Web Publishing Service" ( "W3SVC" )

and do stop

controller.Stop();
controller.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(timeoutSeconds));

and do start

controller.Start();
controller.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus.Running, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(timeoutSeconds));
Process.Start() using command: taskkill /IM aspnet_wp.exe /F (use w3wp.exe in Win2003)
another options that I don't know?

Visual Source Safe / Does VSS Require A Separate license

May 11, 2010

Is the VSS 2005 the newest version? (As far as I've seem it seems like it is...)

Is this version compatible with VisualStudio 2005 and 2008? (it seems like it is...)

I've found some pages where they say really bad things about source safe, like VSS corrupts often and running "analyze" is recommended once a week....., check this one:

http://www.highprogrammer.com/alan/windev/sourcesafe.html or this one:

http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2006/08/source-control-anything-but-sourcesafe.html. Should I use VSS or something else like SVN (Subversion)?

Does VSS require a separate license? I mean, for the VSS server or repository.
