make sure you are at the latest MDAC and have all service pack applied for
SQL. I think that the latest MDAC prevents attacks like this, but I could be
wrong.

Subject: Preventing SQL injection attacks...?


Hi all,

Had some interesting errors in our logs yesterday. It appears that someone's
trying to hack our database by inserting SQL query language into the URL
string.

We're doing all the standard security measures, including filtering for
single quotes, using database passwords, and the like, and we locked out
their IP immediately. But really, how do you prevent this? Any
ideas/feedback out there?
