Hi All,
Firstly, let me say I'm new to sqlmap and this mailing list, so Hi
everyone - Hopefully I'll be here for a while
We have some applications which are being penetration tested by an
external auditor and some issues have been found. I'd like to add
testing with sqlmap to our release procedure (alongside improved testing
and implementing best practice). Hopefully this will act as a final
safeguard. (NB: I've yet to see it working so I'm not sure how suitable
it will be)
The issue I'm having is that sqlmap seems to be unable to connect to any
machines from my PC (including loopback). We do have a proxy which
requires authentication for connections leaving the local network
however since both my PC and the servers I'll be testing are on the same
LAN, the proxy shouldn't be an issue (Although I may need to play with
it to make Auto-update work).
I've tried both the windows executable and (in case it was an issue with
the EXE build, using python). I've included the EXE command and output
below... In this case I'm using a Login form on my local PC with a SQL
backend which I've left vulnerable to SQL injection to allow me to test
sqlmap. When running under Python 3.0.1 it errored. When running under
2.6 I get the same output as below with a couple of warnings about the
hash function being deprecated.
If it _is_ trying to use the proxy settings detected on my PC, it should
find one that is ignored for addresses inside the LAN. If not, it would
need to authenticate against the proxy using NTLM.
To confirm, I can browse to the URL in IE/FF and if I telnet directly to
port 80 and send the correct headers, I get an HTTP 200 and the correct
page contents back - So my machine is capable of connecting directly
without a proxy.
I'm not sure what other information would be useful for debugging -
Please let me know
Any help greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Simon
