A widespread assumption persists across the software development landscape: once an application integrates an Object-Relational Mapper, SQL injection ceases to be a realistic threat. Frameworks like Sequelize, Prisma, TypeORM, and Knex have long touted their ability to automatically parameterize queries, shielding engineering teams from classic database vulnerabilities. However, recent security analyses highlight that this protection…
