Rapid Blind SQL Injection Exploitation with BBQSQL

Ben ToewsScott Behrens

Ben Toews and Scott Behrens explores rapid blind sql injection exploitation with bbqsql at DEF CON 20, examining social-engineering and practical defenses.

Summary

Architecture and Background

Copy of the slides for this talk are here: Extras: Rapid Blind SQL Injection Exploitation with BBQSQL Ben Toews Security Consultant, Neohapsis Scott Behrens Security Consultant, Neohapsis Blind SQL injection can be a pain to exploit. When the available tools work they work well, but when they don't you have to write something custom. This is time-consuming and tedious. This talk will be introducing a new tool called BBQSQL that attempts to address these concerns.

Vulnerability Analysis

This talk will start with a brief discussion of SQL Injection and Blind SQL Injection. It will then segue into a discussion of how BBQSQL can be useful in exploiting these vulnerabilities. This talk will cover how features like evented concurrency and character frequency based searching can greatly improve the performance of a SQL Injection tool. This talk should leave you with enough knowledge to begin using BBQSQL to simplify and speed up your application pentests.
