https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/39#issuecomment-339406634 https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/39 339406634 MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDMzOTQwNjYzNA== 9599 2017-10-25T17:27:10Z 2017-10-25T17:27:10Z OWNER It certainly looks like some of the stuff in https://sqlite.org/pragma.html could be used to screw around with things. Example: `PRAGMA case_sensitive_like = 1` - would that affect future queries? {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} 268469569

Would that prevent people from using a compound SELECT statement to trigger an evil PRAGMA of some sort? {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} 268469569

I should use ? for tables too. {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} 268469569
