Well, that's pretty much exactly the question --- are there? It would
certainly make it easier for someone to exploit any other security
weakness they might find. I believe plain SQL plus SQL functions is
Turing-complete, but that doesn't mean it's easy or fast to write loops
etc in it.
That's a bit harder argument to sustain now we have recursive queries, ISTM.
