It can take advantage of a vulnerable web application. By using this software user can perform back-end database fingerprint, retrieve DBMS users and password hashes, dump tables and columns, fetching data from the database, running SQL statements and even accessing the underlying file system and executing commands on the operating system.

The power of Havij that makes it different from similar tools is its injection methods. The success rate is more than 95% at injection vulnerable targets using Havij.

The user friendly GUI (Graphical User Interface) of Havij and automated settings and detections makes it easy to use for everyone even amateur users.

There is a free version available and also a more fully-featured commercial edition available here.

You can download Havij v1.12 Free Edition here:

It’s been 2 years, but a new version of sqlninja is out at Sourceforge, we wrote about the previous release back in 2008 and we’ve actually been following this tool since 2006!

Sqlninja is a tool to exploit SQL Injection vulnerabilities on a web application that uses Microsoft SQL Server as its back-end. Its main goal is to provide an interactive access on the vulnerable DB server, even in a very hostile environment. It should be used by penetration testers to help and automate the process of taking over a DB Server when a SQL Injection vulnerability has been discovered.

Features

• Fingerprint of the remote SQL Server (version, user performing the queries, user privileges, xp_cmdshell availability, DB authentication mode)
• Bruteforce of ‘sa’ password (in 2 flavors: dictionary-based and incremental)
• Privilege escalation to sysadmin group if ‘sa’ password has been found
• Creation of a custom xp_cmdshell if the original one has been removed
• Upload of netcat (or any other executable) using only normal HTTP requests (no FTP/TFTP needed)
• TCP/UDP portscan from the target SQL Server to the attacking machine, in order to find a port that is allowed by the firewall of the target network and use it for a reverse shell
• Direct and reverse bindshell, both TCP and UDP
• DNS-tunneled pseudo-shell, when no TCP/UDP ports are available for a direct/reverse shell, but the DB server can resolve external hostnames
• Evasion techniques to confuse a few IDS/IPS/WAF
• Integration with Metasploit3, to obtain a graphical access to the remote DB server through a VNC server injection

What’s New?

• Proxy support (it was about time!)
• No more 64k bytes limit in upload mode
• Upload mode is also massively faster
• Privilege escalation through token kidnapping (kudos to Cesar Cerrudo)
• Other minor improvements

Compatibility

It is written in Perl, it is released under the GPLv2 and so far has been successfully tested on:

• Linux
• FreeBSD
• Mac OS X

Database Support

• Access: Informations (Database Path; Root Path; Drivers); Data
• MSSql: Informations; Data; FileReader; RegReader; FileWriter; Cmd; DirTree
• MySql: Informations; Data; FileReader; FileWriter;
• Oracle: Inforatmions (Version; IP; Database; Accounts ……); Data; and any others;
• Informix: Informatons; Data
• DB2: Informatons; Data; and more;
• Sybase: Informatons; Data; and more;
• PostgreSQL: Informatons; Data; FileReader;
• Sqlite: Informatons; Data

At present, most of the functions are directed at MSSQL and MySql coupled with Oracle and Access. Other small and medium-sized companies are using DB2, Informix, Sybase, PostgreSQL, as well as Sqlite which isn’t so common.
