Are there character escapes for SQL, to protect against stuff like that?
-
Input sanitation typically handles this as a string that only includes characters supported by the data type of the table in question. While in transit, the strings might be escaped at certain stages, such as via URL encoding. Though this is considered poor practice in many applications, it’s not uncommon to see. The point, however, is to prevent the evaluation of inputs as anything other than their intended type, whether or not reserved characters are present.

Use parameters, that way data and queries are separate.
-
Yes but it's a dangerous process. You should use paramatrized queries instead.
-
And it's probably not seen as urgent enough an issue to need replacing the whole system for.

It got worse than this, the ticketing company really wanted to get the money from him so when he got hold of a copy of the records and pointed out that one ticket was for a completely different car they modified the records on their end to change the make of car so it would match his. iirc he only got out of it because he had paper copies.

As long as there's javascript somewhere, anything can happen

Lmao, I knew a guy from grade school with the last name Null.

It's baffling to me. Maybe I'm just used to using "modern" frameworks, but the only way this could be an issue is if if you literally check if the string value equals "null" and then replace it with a null value.
lastName = lastName.ToUpper() == "NULL" ? null : lastName;Either that or the database has some bug where it's converting a string value of "null" into a
null.
