SQL injection attacks work by exploiting the structure of an SQL query. An attacker can inject malicious SQL code into an application’s query in order to gain access to sensitive data or to modify the database. This attack is possible because the application does not properly validate the input from the user. The malicious SQL code can be used to gain access to user accounts, modify existing data, or even delete data. The attacker can also use the attack to gain access to the underlying operating system or other applications on the same server.
