i am performing an external scan for a company. i have already ran nessus and nikto. neither one of these turned up any major vulnearabilities other than a possible sql injection, seen below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14' Syntax error in string in query expression 'NewsID=''. /news-article.asp, line 15 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- nessus gave the following vulnerability message ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following URLs seem to be vulnerable to various SQL injection techniques : /news-article.asp?NewsID='UNION' /news-article.asp?NewsID=' /news-article.asp?NewsID=' /news-article.asp?NewsID='%22 /news-article.asp?NewsID='%22 /news-article.asp?NewsID=9%2c+9%2c+9 /news-article.asp?NewsID=9%2c+9%2c+9 /news-article.asp?NewsID='bad_bad_value /news-article.asp?NewsID='bad_bad_value /news-article.asp?NewsID=bad_bad_value' /news-article.asp?NewsID=bad_bad_value' /news-article.asp?NewsID='+OR+' /news-article.asp?NewsID='WHERE /news-article.asp?NewsID='WHERE /news-article.asp?NewsID=%3B /news-article.asp?NewsID=%3B /news-article.asp?NewsID='OR /news-article.asp?NewsID='OR ------------------------------------------------------------------- when i report this vulnearability to the company i want to show evidence of data that i got from the injection. i have read white papers on sql injections and i have tried all the usual suspects when it comes to sql injections but still no luck. is there something special with Microsoft JET database? what would be some sql injections i could try to pull back table information? i have tried an automated too such as Absinthe, not sure how to use it though. what is your take on commercial software that scans (e.g. webinspect, saint), should i give those a shot as well or will nessus do the trick? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This List Sponsored by: CenzicConcerned about Web Application Security?
