"Dude, I was talking to a dev friend who worked on a site that got hit with a massive SQLi attack. They said the hackers basically made off with 40k user records, and it took them weeks to patch the issue and notify the affected users. Still got a bad taste in my mouth just thinking about it."

"Dude, just had a close call with an SQLi attack on our dev server. Luckily our team was onto it ASAP and we mitigated the damage, but it was a wild ride. Anyone else have a similar experience, or have any tips on preventing these types of attacks?"

"Lol, I've had some close calls with SQLi in the past, but nothing too crazy. One time an old client's site got hacked 'cause they were using a vulnerability scanner that was outdated... lesson learned there. Anyone else got some horror stories?"
