This version or RIPS had the ability to scan PHP applications very fast for PHP-specific vulnerabilities. It supports the detection of 15 different vulnerability types, including Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection, Local File Inclusion, and others. Detected vulnerabilities are presented in a web interface with the minimum set of affected code ...
A classification of SQL injection attacking vector as of 2010. In computing, SQL injection is a code injection technique used to attack data-driven applications, in which malicious SQL statements are inserted into an entry field for execution (e.g. to dump the database contents to the attacker).

This thesis identifies common vulnerabilities affecting database management systems: injection, misconfigured databases, HTTP interfaces, encryption, and authentication and authorization. This thesis also examines three open source database management systems: MySQL, MongoDB, and Cassandra.
The Yahoo Voices breach occurred on July 12, 2012, when a hacking group calling themselves "D33DS Company" used a union-based SQL injection attack to gain unauthorized access to Yahoo's servers. [5] The attackers were able to extract and publish unencrypted account details, including emails and passwords, for approximately 450,000 user accounts ...
The vulnerability could "allow a remote user to execute SQL injection attacks". [4] [5] The flaw affected all versions of the software up to 0.7.1. The Beehive Forum team responded very rapidly with a fix released, in the form of version 0.8 of the software, later that day. [6]
OWASP Development Guide: The Development Guide provides practical guidance and includes J2EE, ASP.NET, and PHP code samples. The Development Guide covers an extensive array of application-level security issues, from SQL injection through modern concerns such as phishing, credit card handling, session fixation, cross-site request forgeries ...
