storeweb88 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I have a annoying hacker that is using this mywebsite.com/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=-6928%27%29%20OR%208645%3D7985%20AND%20%28%27reOn%27%3D%27reOn&search_in_description=1&sort=1a&page=187 that causes a super high load on the mysql server. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with this? I tried looking through the forums for code to update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

storeweb88 Posted July 5 Author Share Posted July 5 Thank you thats a fantastic idea. I didn't do that, what I did was just changed some of the code around in the search so for example if someone types in a hackerish code like above it just cuts it out of the string, I used a replace method for that.
