sqlsus focuses on speed and efficiency, optimising the available injection space, making the best use (I can think of) of MySQL functions. It uses stacked subqueries and an powerful blind injection algorithm to maximise the data gathered per web server hit. Using multithreading on top of that, sqlsus is an extremely fast database dumper, be it for inband or blind injection.If the privileges are high enough, sqlsus will be a great help for uploading a backdoor through the injection point, and takeover the web server.

It uses SQLite as a backend, for an easier use of what has been dumped, and integrates a lot of usual features (see below) such as cookie support, socks/http proxying, https..

What’s New

Starting with version 0.7, sqlsus now supports time-based blind injection and automatically detects web server / suhosin / etc.. length restrictions.

• Added time-based blind injection support (added option “blind_sleep”, and renamed “string_to_match” to “blind_string”).
• It is now possible to force sqlsus to exit when it’s hanging (i.e.: retrieving data), by hitting Ctrl-C more than twice.
• Rewrite of “autoconf max_sendable”, so that sqlsus will properly detect which length restriction applies (WEB server / layer above). (removed option “max_sendable”, added options “max_url_length” and “max_inj_length”)
• Uploading a file now sends it into chunks under the length restriction.
• sqlsus now saves variables after each command, so that forcing it to quit (or killing it) will not discard the changes that were made.
• Added a progress bar to inband mode, sqlsus now determines the number of rows to be returned prior to fetching them.
• get db (tables/columns) in inband mode now uses multithreading (like everything else).
• clone now uses count(*) if available (set by “get count” / “get db”), instead of using fetch-ahead.
• In blind mode, “start” will now test if things work the way they should, by injecting 2 queries : one true and one false.
• sqlsus now prints what configuration options are overridden (when a saved value differs from the configuration file).

sqlsus is an open source MySQL injection and takeover tool, written in perl.

Via a command line interface that mimics a mysql console, you can retrieve the database structure, inject a SQL query, download files from the web server, upload and control a backdoor, and much more…

It is designed to maximize the amount of data gathered per web server hit, making the best use of MySQL functions to optimize the available injection space.

sqlsus is focused on PHP/MySQL installations, and integrates some neat features, some of them being really specific to this DBMS.

It is not and won’t ever be a SQL injection scanner, it starts its job on the next step.

Both quoted and numeric injections are supported.

All quoted texts can be translated as their hex equivalent (eg : “sqlsus” will become 0x73716c737573)

sqlsus also supports these 2 scenarios of injection :

• sighted : the result of the request will be in the HTML returned by the web server
• blind : when you can’t see the result of the request directly

Support for GET and POST parameters injections.

Support for HTTP proxy and HTTP simple authentication.

Full logging support of your queries and the answers, allowing you to recall a command and its cached answer, even in a later re-use of the session.

Key variables can be edited on the fly, saved per session, and can be loaded in a later session on the same target server.

Requirements

On a Debian system, in addition to perl, you will need the following packages :

• libterm-readline-perl-perl
• libipc-shareable-perl
• libwww-mechanize-perl

It also requires previous SQL injection knowledge, and.. well.. a brain helps.
