Like say the very last part of a SQL statement of yours is a
CF Variable.
SELECT someID
FROM someTable
WHERE someID = #someVariable#
I am Joe Random Hacker
I pick up on a few URL parameters and know how
stuff works.
So I go to
www.somesite.com?fuseaction=SomeQuery&someVariable=DELETE%20FROM%20someTable
This is of course after I have pillaged your data structure since I know you
use
SQL 7.0 (Doing this by possible doing queries to your sys objects in SQL
7.0)
Yes I know it all sounds a little unbelievable but its not nearly as hard as
it sounds. Oh and if you just happen to have an exploit that you forgot to
patch
that gives someone access to your CF code you can kiss your site and your IP
history.
(This is purely hypothetical but it is a very real sitaution where a
persistent
"hacker" is going to bea ble to learn these things)

what do you mean by "malicious" SQL?
How would this work?
