Hi Raymond,

Sure, it's one of the irrelevant security warnings which have been blindly applied as blocking. Good news: it's already identified and also improved by the fantastic work of Lova! See: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Plugins-Website/pull/316#discussion_r3342025056

Hi, I'm having this security issue with Bandit and cannot publish my plugin. But the executeSql() does not take separate parameters. What would be the proper solution here?


Possible SQL injection vector through string-based query construction.
104             q = f'DELETE FROM imaer_metadata WHERE key = \'{key}\';'
105             self.conn.executeSql(q)


Maybe instead of key, use escaped_key = key.replace("'", "''") (ie replacing single quote by single quote repeated twice)

That should be enough to avoid SQL injection, but no idea if Bandit will be smart enough to recognize this

Some DB backends might have different escaping rules than the above standard SQL92 one, so it might be tricky to do that safely against an arbitrary backend.
