Is there a way to find SQL injection vulnerabilities?
Note: I am asking how to find them on a server you are in control of so you can fix them. I am not asking about how to detect them on someone else's server to exploit them.
Is there a way to find every occurance of mysql_query() without opening every page and doing a ctrl+f?

Many researchers have been studying a number of methods to detect and prevent SQL injection attacks, and the most preferred techniques are web framework, static analysis, dynamic analysis, combined static and dynamic analysis, and machine learning techniques.
Can SQL Injection be traced? Most SQL Injection Vulnerabilities and attacks can be reliably and swiftly traced through a number of credible SQL Injection tools or some web vulnerability scanner. SQL Injection detection is not such a trying task, but most developers make errors.
SQL injection (SQLi) is a web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to interfere with the queries that an application makes to its database. It generally allows an attacker to view data that they are not normally able to retrieve.
The artist parameter is vulnerable to SQL Injection. The following payload modifies the query to look for an inexistent record. It sets the value in the URL query string to -1 . Of course, it could be any other value that does not exist in the database.
Using linux, you can use the grep utility.
find /dir/containing/files -type f -name '*.php'|xargs grep --color=auto "mysql_query"
/dir/containing/files: The directory containing your PHP files, for example, /home/user/domains/example.com/public_html-type f: search for files only (not directories)-name '*.php' match files ending with .php only. If you'ld like to match other files too, like .inc use this instead: -name '*.php' -o -name '*.inc' (matches *.php OR *.inc)|xargs grep use the contents of the found files for searching--color=auto highlights the found part"mysql_query" your search terms
