Another horror story is related to SQL injection. Hackers exploited a vulnerability in a website's login form which was using SQL queries. They were able to insert malicious SQL statements into the input fields. As a result, they could access unauthorized data, including user credentials and other sensitive information. It was a nightmare for the security team to patch up all the holes and ensure user data safety.

What are the common SQL Server horror stories?
A common horror story is performance issues. For example, a query that was supposed to run in seconds took hours. This was due to bad indexing.

If a SQL Server has weak authentication or improper user permissions, it can be easily hacked. Hackers can then steal sensitive data like customer information or financial records.
