okay thanks andrew, appreciate the help and i’ll have a look through them. if i have any queries is it okay to post here again?

like where you said i can backtrack from the solutions to exploits, i am going to have great difficulty with this. For example obviously for my project i’ve had to do initial research, so i provided a few examples of exploits that have occurred. one of which is: SQL commands via the ‘post_type’ parameter which sends to the ‘pingback.extentions.getpingbacks’ process. so i have looked up this on google and i don’t even know what these processes/methods are for, let alone being able to perform/mitigate against.

so saying to backtrack is going to be difficult because i literally understand very little.

i probably sound really stupid and you’re wondering why i’m doing IT security but as i said i just want to get it done and move on.

thanks

nope

i appreciate the help but even having to backtrack for me will be a difficult task, i am a complete novice in IT security and i am only sticking my degree out because i’m so close to the end and it’d be a waste otherwise. however thanks for your support guys.
