SQL Injection via String Formatting: How Parameterized Queries Save the Day

A database query in DBeaver's Altibase extension was constructing SQL statements using `String.format()` with user-controlled input, creating a classic SQL injection vulnerability. The fix replaces the unsafe string interpolation with parameterized queries using `PreparedStatement`, ensuring user input is always treated as data rather than executable SQL. This type of vulnerability is deceptively simple to introduce but equally simple to fix once you know what to look for.
