Question 1

What is command injection and how does it differ from code injection?

Accepted Answer

Command injection executes OS commands via unsanitized input. Code injection executes application code. Command injection is OS-level; code injection operates within the app.

Question 2

What are the most dangerous shell metacharacters?

Accepted Answer

Pipes (|), semicolons (;), backticks (`), command substitution $(), output redirection (>, >>), background (&), and logical operators (&&, ||) are all dangerous.

Question 3

What is the safest way to run system commands from code?

Accepted Answer

Use parameterized APIs (subprocess.run with list args, not shell=True; ProcessBuilder in Java). Avoid shell interpretation entirely when possible.

Question 4

Why is input validation alone insufficient?

Accepted Answer

Attackers are creative. Use defense in depth: validation + parameterized APIs + principle of least privilege + allowlisting + logging + monitoring.

Question 5

How do I safely handle user filenames in system commands?

Accepted Answer

Never concatenate filenames into command strings. Pass filenames as separate arguments to APIs that don't invoke a shell (subprocess.run args list, not shell=True).

Question 6

What is shell escaping and is it safe?

Accepted Answer

Escaping can work but is error-prone and language/shell dependent. Parameterized APIs are strongly preferred; shell escaping should be a last resort.

Question 7

How do I test code for command injection vulnerabilities?

Accepted Answer

Use fuzzing with shell metacharacters, static analysis tools, manual code review, and penetration testing. OWASP ZAP and Burp Suite include command injection scanners.
