[sqlmap-users] --crawl

[Nicolas K. <kr...@de...>]

Greetings,

  I encountered the problem below whilst trying to check the new feature
"crawl". Also in a different website sqlmap with crawl option enabled and no
other tuning parameters successfully DOS apache service to a load of 100++.

root@fr:~/sqlmap# ./sqlmap.py -u "http://www.XXdomainXX.com" --crawl

    sqlmap/1.0-dev (r4137) - automatic SQL injection and database takeover
tool
