I was looking over a client's website when I discovered a classic (almost 
cliche) sql injection vulnerability (i.e. Username ' OR ''=' | Password ' OR 
''='). I did more poking and prodding and discovered that they are using MS 
Access for a backend. I know you can't string queries together (i.e. Select 
user from tbl where blah = var; Select...). My question is then, is there any 
'good way' to use sql injection against this database to drive home the 
severity of the lack of input validation? Currently, the best I got was access 
to non-sensitive information that one simply needed to supply an email for.

Thanks a lot,

If any of the error messages give a clue as to the location of the database .mdb file see if you can download it. Another common mistake is to put the database in the web root somewhere.
