## Basic Information
**Apache Cassandra** is 'n **hoogliks skalbare**, **hoë-prestasie** verspreide databasis wat ontwerp is om **groot hoeveelhede data** oor baie **kommoditeitsbedieners** te hanteer, wat **hoë beskikbaarheid** bied sonder 'n **enkele punt van mislukking**. Dit is 'n tipe **NoSQL-databasis**.
In verskeie gevalle mag jy vind dat Cassandra **enige geloofsbriewe** aanvaar (aangesien daar geen geconfigureer is nie) en dit kan potensieel 'n aanvaller toelaat om die databasis te **op te som**.
**Standaardpoort:** 9042,9160
```
PORT STATE SERVICE REASON
9042/tcp open cassandra-native Apache Cassandra 3.10 or later (native protocol versions 3/v3, 4/v4, 5/v5-beta)
9160/tcp open cassandra syn-ack
```
## Opname
### Handmatig
```bash
pip install cqlsh
cqlsh
#Basic info enumeration
SELECT cluster_name, thrift_version, data_center, partitioner, native_protocol_version, rack, release_version from system.local;
#Keyspace enumeration
SELECT keyspace_name FROM system.schema_keyspaces;
desc #Decribe that DB
desc system_auth #Describe the DB called system_auth
SELECT * from system_auth.roles; #Retreive that info, can contain credential hashes
SELECT * from logdb.user_auth; #Can contain credential hashes
SELECT * from logdb.user;
SELECT * from configuration."config";
```
### Geoutomatiseerd
Daar is nie veel opsies hier nie en nmap verkry nie veel inligting nie
```bash
nmap -sV --script cassandra-info -p
```
