B00 comments in sample code

mkuligPSI opened this issue 2 years ago · comments

I have read https://github.com/OWASP/www-community/blob/master/pages/Hibernate.md. It contains sample code and I noticed
/*B00*/
comment in 3 places. What does it mean? I guess that it means disapproval or disagreement but I have no idea why two zeroes are used instead of two letters o.

I have no idea. You could look at the original: https://wiki.owasp.org/index.php/Hibernate perhaps you can hit up the author and ask.

I looked quickly, it seems to be associated with SQL use, so perhaps places that are subject to SQLi?

I think it’s meant to represent the word “boo” and indicate places SQLi might be an issue.
