How do I insert a value into a select statement using JavaScript, specifically when using express and postgres?

The createUser, and listAllUsers, is working (included below for reference). The try/catch is working and satisfying the request or throwing the error for those two as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When using Postman, the output that I receive when I send the get (localhost:4000/user/id with a x-www-formurlencoded key value user_id = 3) is…

{
    "name": "error",
    "length": 90,
    "severity": "ERROR",
    "code": "42601",
    "position": "37",
    "file": "scan.l",
    "line": "1134",
    "routine": "scanner_yyerror"
}

And in the terminal, it shows the following (trapped from my console.log).

3
QUERY:  SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_id = ${user_id}

When I user curl it says the same in the terminal. Here is the curl command and putput…

curl -X GET localhost:4000/user/3

{"name":"error","length":90,"severity":"ERROR","code":"42601","position":"37","file":"scan.l","line":"1134","routine":"scanner_yyerror"}ww10sc2353621:~ james.mcgreggor$ curl -X GET localhost:4000/user/3

Ultimately the 3 that I am passing as the user_id is not being substituted in the select statement. That is my problem. I cannot figure out how to correctly do this. Should I even be taking this approach, or should I try passing it as a parameter in the URL?

This is from my User class file (User.js)

const db = require('../connectors/db.js');
class User {

  constructor(id, user_id, first_name, middle_initial, last_name, email, type) {
    this.id = id;
    this.first_name = first_name;
    this.middle_initial = middle_initial;
    this.last_name = last_name;
    this.email = email;
    this.type = type;
    this.user_id = user_id;
  }

  static newUser(user_id, first_name, middle_initial, last_name, email, type) {
     return db.one(`
      INSERT INTO users ("user_id", "first_name", "middle_initial", "last_name", "email", "type")
      VALUES ('${user_id}', '${first_name}', '${middle_initial}', '${last_name}', '${email}', '${type}')
  returning id
      `)
  }

  static async allUsers() {
    const findAllQuery = 'SELECT * FROM users;';
    return db.query(findAllQuery)
  }

  static async selectUser(user_id) {
    console.log(user_id);
    const findOneQuery = 'SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_id = ${user_id}';
    return db.query(findOneQuery)
  }
}

module.exports = User;

This is from my Routes file (Routes.js)

const express = require('express');
const dataFunctions = require('./catalog.js');

const AppRouter = express.Router();

AppRouter.post('/user', dataFunctions.createUser);
AppRouter.get('/users', dataFunctions.listAllUsers);
AppRouter.get('/user/:id', dataFunctions.listUserByUserID);
AppRouter.delete('/user/:id', dataFunctions.deleteUserByUserID);

module.exports = AppRouter;

This is from my Catalog file (Routes.js)

const Users = require('../models/users.js')

// Create

async function createUser(req, res) {
  try {
  console.log(req.body);
  const userId = await Users.newUser(req.body.user_id, req.body.first_name, req.body.middle_initial, req.body.last_name, req.body.email, req.body.type)
 res.status(201).send(`User ID: ${userId.id}`);
  } catch(error) {
    res.status(400).send(error);
  }
}

// List all

async function listAllUsers(req, res) {
  try {
  const userList = await Users.allUsers();
  console.log(userList);
  res.status(200).send(userList);
  } catch(error) {
    res.status(400).send(error);
  }
}

// List by ID

async function listUserByUserID(req, res) {
  try {
  const userList = await Users.selectUser(req.body.user_id);
  console.log(userList);
  res.status(200).send(userList);
  } catch(error) {
    res.status(400).send(error);
  }
}

module.exports = {
  createUser,
  listAllUsers,
  listUserByUserID
}

回答1:

Instead of using single quotes in select query in static async selectUser use ``.

回答2:

Never use string concatenation for querying, you already have mechanism called prepared statement, signature like

.query('SELECT * FROM `books` WHERE `author` = ?', ['David'])

It will sanitize input for you and partially prevent sql-injection attacks, also always do validation of input values. And if you are not want to use ORM like typeorm, Sequelize, you can use knex.js which can only create query strings and fully manage db interaction

回答3:

You should never insert the values directly into your query like that. Consider the example:

db.query(`
  INSERT INTO messages (message, username)
  VALUES ('${message}', '${username}')
`);

If the username was my authenticated username, but the message was whatever value I typed into the UI, I could pretend to be someone else by sending a message like: I am stupid', 'someone_else') --

The SQL would then look like:

INSERT INTO messages (message, username)
VALUES ('I am stupid', 'someone_else') --', 'my_username')

The --', 'my_username') bit is treated as a comment, so it looks like someone_else said I am stupid. This is one of the most common and easily exploitable vulnerabilities in web applications.

Solution 1

You could parameterise your query:

db.query(`
  INSERT INTO messages (message, username)
  VALUES (?, ?)
`, [message, username]);

This is secure, but harder to read (in my opinion) and you have to be very careful to always do this consistently.

Solution 2

https://www.atdatabases.org provides database APIs that are relatively easy to use, and totally safe from this kind of attack. You would just do:

import connect, {sql} from '@databases/pg';

const db = connect();

db.query(sql`
  INSERT INTO messages (message, username)
  VALUES (${message}, ${username})
`);

to safely execute the same query. The sql tag ensures the data is properly handled/escaped and @databases/pg automatically enforces that you always add the sql tag. N.B. there are then no quotes around the parameters.
