"SQL Injection 101: The OG Exploit Still Hacking Your Databases Blind"

[кистина]

Hey everyone, I wanted to bring up a topic that still gets me riled up - SQL Injection attacks. Despite the numerous security patches and measures implemented over the years, this classic exploit still manages to find its way into databases and steal sensitive info. Today, I'll be going over the basics of SQL Injection, aka the OG exploit that still blindsides many devs and sysadmins.

"I'm with OP on this one, SQL injection still happens way more often than you'd think. Most devs I know aren't familiar with parametrized queries, and it's a recipe for disaster. Anyone have some good resources for educating devs on SQL injection prevention?"

"Yo, still amazed how many db's get pwned due to outdated SQL. We've been warning about this since the early 2000s, and it's hilarious (sadly) that devs still don't take it seriously. Anyways, good thread, got some quality tips in here."

"Yo, SQLi is still a thing even with all the modern security measures? I had a colleague's personal project pwned by a SQL injection attack last year, it was a wake-up call. Anyone know of any modern tools or plugins that can help prevent these kinds of attacks?"

"Yo, still getting people getting burned by this one. SQL injection is like a 90s horror movie, you know - old, but still scary. Anyone still using unpatched MySQL 5.1 should just facepalm now"

"Lol, still a threat after all these years. I remember a project I worked on a few years ago that got hacked through SQLi, cost us a pretty penny. Anyone have a good resource for teaching devs to prevent it?"

"Dude, I'm still seeing people mess up the basics. Always remember, parametrize your queries and sanitize user input, it's not that hard. Otherwise you might as well be leaving your database doors wide open."

"Y'all need to keep it real, SQL injection is a classic exploit that's still widely used today. I had a friend whose dev team got pwned by a SQLi attack last year, lost a ton of sensitive data. Still, education is key, thanks for the thread, OP!"

"Yooo, still can't believe people get owned by SQL injection. It's like, basic security 101 - always parametrize your queries. This one's a no-brainer, but I guess it bears repeating for some folks"

"Word, this is still a huge vulnerability in a lot of old-school websites. I saw an example in a vulnerable phpMyAdmin instance the other day, and it was crazy how easy it was to dump the whole database. Got to keep that SQLi knowledge sharp, guys"
