Gaining remote access through buffer overflow: Optimized a python script that is used for fuzzing every input field of the given application to trigger a crash. Application crashes are identified through immunity debugger. Msf-pattern_create is used to take control of EIP CPU register by overwriting a return address. Exploit payload is included in the buffer prepended by an optional NOP sled. Upon successful execution, reverse-shell session is presented to the attacker.
SQL Injection and Web Application Testing using Burp Suite: The python script enumerates every field of a web app using un-sanitized data input (line-breaks, single quotes etc.) to cause database error. Burp Suite’s repeater tool is then used to capture requests and to enumerate the database. A PHP script is then used to create a payload file that is inserted into the server’s web root using PHP’s INTO OUTFILE function. Upon successful execution of payload, the attacker is presented with reverse-shell session.
