You notice some logs on the WAF that suggest there were some repeated attempts to bypass the SQL injection protection. After inspecting the web server and MySQL database you Find no indications of data manipulation. You then decide to delve deeper and examine the database server logs.

Explanation
The payload 1' OR '1'='1'; -- is a classic SQL injection technique used to force a condition to evaluate as true and comment out the remainder of a query. If it appears in the database server logs, it strongly suggests the malicious input reached and was executed by the database engine- indicating a successful injection attempt and potential unauthorized access/manipulation, even if obvious changes are not immediately visible.
