Conduct thorough input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the application code to prevent SQL injection. 5. Regularly audit and monitor database logs for suspicious queries or anomalies related to the vulnerable endpoint. 6. If immediate patching is not possible, consider disabling or restricting the vulnerable functionality temporarily. 7. Educate administrators and security teams about this vulnerability to ensure rapid detection and response to potential exploitation attempts.
