The probing for server vulnerabilities is non stop. Those people look for everything.
i.e.

1. High profile sites are viewed as excellent targets. They put more energy in trying to find open doors.
2.If the default database port is open and root has a weak password.
3. If the PHP version has any vulnerabilities.
4.If Mysql version has any vulnerabilities.
5.If the Operating System has any vulnerabilities.
6. Database code not filtered correctly >>"SQL injection refers to the act of someone inserting a MySQL statement to be run on your database without your knowledge."
