Lately it seems like SQL Injection attacks have been increasing. Recently our team has worked through resolving a few different SQL Injection attacks across a variety of web sites. Each of these attacks had a number of similarities which proved to point back to the same source. With this information in hand, the resolution should be much quicker. As such, if your web site is attacked with SQL Injection, how should you address it? How can the identification, analysis, recovery and resolution be streamlined? What are some lessons learned?

I have this code in SQL Server 2022:
CREATE SCHEMA etl;
GO
CREATE TABLE etl.product
(
ProductID INT,
ProductName VARCHAR(100)
);
GO
INSERT etl.product
VALUES
(2, 'Bee AI Wearable');
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.product
(
ProductID INT,
ProductName VARCHAR(100)
);
GO
INSERT dbo.product
VALUES
(1, 'Spiral College-ruled Notebook');
GO
CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE etl.GettheProduct
AS
BEGIN
exec('SELECT ProductName FROM product;')
END;
GO
exec etl.GettheProduct
When I execute this code as a user whose default schema is dbo and has rights to the tables and proc, what is returned? See possible answers
