Since you are using DBI, why not bind the variables and be done with it?
this would become
$query = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO metadata (md5, origin, name, value)
VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)");
$query->execute($md5, $origin, $name, $value);
This way you don't have to deal with double quoting and all that. (You can
also call bind_param, but I find it easier to just pass args into execute)
