Looks like it was just that. From OP's comment:

"According to DDoSecrets' Best, the hacker says that they pulled out Gab's data via a SQL injection vulnerability in the site—a common web bug in which a text field on a site doesn't differentiate between a user's input and commands in the site's code, allowing a hacker to reach in and meddle with its backend SQL database."

PHP runs most websites. It's easy to sanitize user input. Whoever wrote gab is an idiot.
