Haha, B) /../../../../ looks like someone's trying to hack the file system, not the database!

I’m a bit confused; I thought option C looked like an injection, but it doesn’t seem as straightforward as A.

I think the basic SQL injection text is something that manipulates the query, like option A, but I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, let me think this through. I know SQL injection is a common attack, so I'm going to go with option A. That looks like the classic single quote and 1=1 trick.
