Automated SQL injection vulnerability scanner
SQL injection is one of the most prevalent hacking methods for web applications. SQL injection vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers to gain unauthorized access to an application’s database contents and potentially the underlying operating system, which is why regular SQL injection scanning is essential. Intruder’s automated SQL injection scanner makes it easy to continuously find these vulnerabilities and keep your apps secure.
How to use our online SQL injection scanner
1
Sign up for an account
Once your account is activated, you can start scanning your systems.
2
Add your targets
Start scanning with just a domain name or IP address. Or, set up a cloud integration to pull targets automatically.
3
Get the results
Review vulnerabilities prioritized by severity and see what’s exposed to the internet.
Find SQL injection vulnerabilities and more
Schedule recurring scans at flexible intervals to automatically find SQL injection vulnerabilities, as well as 75+ other application issues, in single and multi-page applications. Easily add authentication to scan behind logins.

Continuously secure your web apps and infrastructure
With Intruder you can secure your web apps, APIs, and underlying infrastructure in one platform. Emerging threat scans proactively check your systems for newly released vulnerabilities.
Fix SQL injection vulnerabilities faster
Intruder streamlines vulnerability management and helps you track how long it takes to remediate issues so you can improve your time-to-fix. Keep on top of important alerts via Slack, Teams, or email.
Manual testing for SQL injection vulnerabilities
An automated SQL injection scanner can help you identify many instances of SQL injection, but manual testing is required to check for more of them. With Intruder's Bug Hunting Service, our experienced penetration testers can check for instances that are not detectable by scanners.

To get started with SQL injection scanning, you need an Application License. This is available across all our plans (Essential, Pro, Premium, and Vanguard). Learn more about our plans.
Intruder performs 75+ checks for applications, including other OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and XSS vulnerabilities, and 140,000+ infrastructure checks, such as unintentionally exposed systems, information leakage, and missing patches. Click here for more information.
The first thing you need to do is add your applications as targets by entering the IP addresses or URLs. You can then kick off your first scan in just a few clicks – it’s that simple!
Once your scan is complete, you will see a list of issues. You can search for ‘SQL injection’ in the search bar to see if this type of vulnerability is present, and if so, which target(s) it affects.
If your application is vulnerable to a SQL injection attack, potential risks include:
- Extraction of data from your system's database, such as usernames and passwords
- Remote execution of code, leading to full control over your server
- Reading, writing, and deleting content within your database
SQL injection is a type of hacking technique where an attacker on the internet can gain unauthorized access and read or alter the data contained in a web application's database.
This often occurs when unchecked input from the user is sent straight to the database and executed. From a single SQL injection vulnerability, it is usually possible to retrieve the entire contents of all databases that the database user running the vulnerable query has access to.
SQL injection is one of the most common ways that web applications are hacked, and is included in the OWASP Top 10 as one of the most critical types of web app vulnerabilities.
