If you are using cakephp and publish websites to the internet, you should very well know if it is secure. My question is do I have to do something to the data before saving it to the database manually to keep it mysql injection safe or does cake take care of that?
For instance do I need to use mysql_real_escape_string() with cake? I will look at the code too but as I can barely code with cake at this point I doubt I will be able to understand it's inner workings very well at this point either.
