You know what's a shit experience? Ordering food on a fucking app. Every restaurant thinks they're special and they all want their own app. So if you have a regular group of restaurants that you order from you're installing

There are always low-hanging fruit, though. I remember pwning php-nuke sites with SQL injection more than a decade ago. At least as far as that dumpster fire (php nuke) goes there are 2021-dated CVEs for SQL injection so clearly at least so
