Use the latest stable version of vB without modifications and you should not have a problem with SQL injections. You can only suffer from this if you are using insecure modifications.

all the mods here are NOT tested, they are made from those wanting to share their mods
If you want the most secure board, than update and don't use any mods ;)

Most of the MODs that are here are "as-is" and at your own risk as far as I know. The ones that you need to be really critical of are the ones that accept user input. They represent the most risk if they are not filtering and sanitizing user input which may be most of them that collect user data. Forms are most often the vehicles for sql injections but not always. They can be passed through the browser as well. You should be really concerned with mods that request data in any event. BTW, I have been running 3.8.1 since the day it was released and it was upgraded from 3.7.5 with no problems and only minor custom style changes, fyi.
