SQL Injection Stacked DML Privilege Abuse

Detects stacked SQL injection where a secondary DML statement (UPDATE, INSERT, GRANT) is appended after a semicolon to modify data or escalate database privileges. Unlike destructive DDL (DROP/TRUNCATE), stacked DML abuse silently alters records—e.g., updating order status to bypass payment checks, inserting unauthorized admin users, or granting elevated SQL permissions. This targets agents that pass ORDER/FILTER inputs into SQL-executing tools without parameterization.

攻擊範例（規則會觸發）

以上為真實攻擊 payload 脫敏版本。用於 regression testing。

正常樣本（規則不會觸發）

1. Normal order lookup

2. Legitimate SELECT with status filter

3. User requesting data update in natural language (no SQL injection)

已知誤報情境
