This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see
AWS WAF Classic
in the developer guide.
For the latest version of AWS WAF, use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the
AWS WAF Developer Guide.
With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for
regional and global use.
Inserts or deletes SqlInjectionMatchTuple objects (filters) in a
SqlInjectionMatchSet. For each SqlInjectionMatchTuple
object, you
specify the following values:
Action
: Whether to insert the object into or delete the object
from the array. To change a SqlInjectionMatchTuple
, you delete the
existing object and add a new one.
FieldToMatch
: The part of web requests that you want AWS WAF to
inspect and, if you want AWS WAF to inspect a header or custom query
parameter, the name of the header or parameter.
TextTransformation
: Which text transformation, if any, to perform
on the web request before inspecting the request for snippets of
malicious SQL code.
You can only specify a single type of TextTransformation.
You use SqlInjectionMatchSet
objects to specify which CloudFront
requests that you want to allow, block, or count. For example, if you're
receiving requests that contain snippets of SQL code in the query string
and you want to block the requests, you can create a
SqlInjectionMatchSet
with the applicable settings, and then configure
AWS WAF to block the requests.
To create and configure a SqlInjectionMatchSet
, perform the following
steps:
Submit a
create_sql_injection_match_set
request.
Use get_change_token
to get the change
token that you provide in the ChangeToken
parameter of an
update_ip_set
request.
Submit an
update_sql_injection_match_set
request to specify the parts of web requests that you want AWS WAF
to inspect for snippets of SQL code.
For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block
HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
