Title: SQL Injection Madness: Can We Still Exploit Vulnerabilities in 2024?

Hey fellow hackers and cybersecurity enthusiasts, I'm curious to know if anyone's still finding SQL injection vulnerabilities in 2024. I recently stumbled upon an old exploit database and saw that some attacks were still successful against outdated software, but I'm wondering if there's still a significant risk of exploiting vulnerable SQL databases. Has anyone had any notable successes or failures with SQL injection attacks in the past year or so?

"Still getting into the habit of using parameterized queries and prepared statements - makes life a whole lot easier in the long run. As for exploiting vulnerabilities, I've seen a few instances of older versions still being used by some devs, so I'd say yes, it's still possible in 2024. Just gotta keep an eye out for those legacy systems."

"Dude, SQLi is still possible, but the likelihood of finding a zero-day exploit is super slim nowadays. With all the security measures in place, it's more about being super meticulous with your queries and exploiting human error rather than a vuln. Modern systems are heavily fortified, making it more of a challenge than ever."

"yep, SQLi is still alive and kickin' in 2024, folks. recent exploits show that many devs still haven't patched up their SQL servers, but it's not like it's a new attack vector anymore. someone need to create a SQLi scanner for the modern web"
