Hey all,

Can anyone (Lisa, I'm looking in your direction) recommend a decent SQL 
injection scanner? I don't really care if it's server-side or 
client-side since it's my server, and I don't need to *exploit* the 
injection points, I just need an easy way to find them. I'd like it to 
be easy to figure out, generate output or reports that are easy to 
follow and not require too much to be installed on the server.

The reason I'm looking for something is that the server on which my 
company hosts its websites has been compromised and I've been putting in 
some considerable hours trying to fix things. I've removed malicious 
scripts, fixed or removed the exploited code and changed all of our 
passwords (from ssh to mysql to user accounts).

Today, I happened to catch a SQL injection scan and now I'm trying to 
look down that path some more. Basically, they used one of our (many) 
poorly escaped queries to poll password data for our site login (among 
other things). Luckily, I shut the scan down before they got the 
passwords so I didn't have to have users reset them *again*.

I've cleaned up a bunch of the sql code over the past could days, but 
I'm wondering if there's a way for me to scan for injections myself and 
attack code that is "more vulnerable" than others. I found sqlsus 
(http://sqlsus.sourceforge.net/), which looked pretty impressive, but it 
didn't run properly and it wasn't really a scanning tool so much as it 
was an exploiting tool. I also found Pixy 
(http://pixybox.seclab.tuwien.ac.at/pixy/), which looked pretty 
comprehensive, but the output looked a little intimidating. Plus, the 
little I read of the docs wasn't really clear about how to actually use it.

Anything else anyone would recommend?

-Joe
