Malicious spam? Injection attempts?

Discussion

The other day I had over 100 spammy entries into my Reviews area of my website. It was in the reviews feature that comes with Easy Digital Downloads. I had to block the IP address.

The posts were weird though. Are these some kind of injection code attempts? Here's what a few of them looked like:

(select(0)from(select(sleep(15)))v)/*'+(select(0)from(select(sleep(15)))v)+'"+(select(0)from(select(sleep(15)))v)+"*/
