Note Submitter: zoisite at bluebottle dot com ---- I wonder if "SQL injection" is possible with a hostname. Does anyone know that, is it possible to manipulate a dns server to respond a domain name which contains an sql statement which allows sql injection? Example: $host = gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']); mysql_query("INSERT INTO table (host) VALUES ('".$host."')"); Do we need addslashes? : $host = addslashes(gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])); Thanks for the answer
