I have been getting 500 errors all day and have had to cycle the app pool to fix it. It looks like it is related to the chinese SQL injection attacks. The SQL injection doesn't work but it knocks IIS over. It looks like the problem happens when they pass the query string to search. Could my host have me throttled in IIS so the pool chokes when a seach like this is run? Is there anything I can do?

 

Here is a log exceprt:

Sadly this has been happening to a number of users recently. It's not a dotnetnuke issue, it's automated robots trying (and in dotnetnuke's case failing) to attack sites via sql injection. You can read more about this at:

I blogged some more detail about this @ http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Blogs/tabid/825/EntryID/1930/Default.aspx , and link to some tools (urlscan) which should help mitigate against it.
