Have your script sanitise all user supplied data to stop sql injections from working. The best way, rebuild the scripts with an abstraction layer between the actual db calls and the served documents, make sure what comes from the served documents is not executed as queries, but is inserted as data, then you can see where the actual attack comes from and charge that person for their illegal activities.
