     @radmin@limepeeps.perchinup.top It is the simplest possible form of SQL injection and it deletes the entire database.

     @SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo Huh, what does DROP DATABASE do? I heard of SQL injection being a common mode of attack for shit security, and this seems like an SQL command, but I haven't used SQL

     @SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo Damn, an entire database :drgn_shocked:
     
     It feels like the sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root of SQL

     Most RDBMS probably expect an argument though, so that won't actually work in most cases I think.
     
     From a quick web search it seems like T-SQL (MS SQL Server) and MySQL expect an argument.
     
     Oracle DB seems not to expect an argument so it would work there I guess.
     
     BTW since when do people add --no-preserve-root and why should it be needed? :blobcat-think3:
     
     I once accidentally ran rm -rf $foo/ while foo was unset and it worked just "fine" as in destroyed most of my data, until I hit ^C :blobcat-joy:

     @taylan@fedi.feministwiki.org @radmin@limepeeps.perchinup.top --no-preserve-root literally does what it says. It does not preserve root. If you run it without this flag it still deletes most your stuff, just excluding the root dir.

     GNU software always gives you the freedom to perform any operation you want, thus if you want to remove /, you can, although it has a check so you can't accidentally rm -rf /.
     
     Alternatively you can just do rm -rf /* as GNU bash expands that to; `/bin /boot /dev /etc /home /lib /lib64 /media /mnt /opt /proc /root /run /sbin /sys /tmp /usr /var` before rm gets it.
     
     
     Of course the degenerate BSD rm implementation doesn't obey the user and refuses to remove /.

     @sally @SuperDicq @radmin @taylan I had seen enough lack of freedom and so removed the software.
