what is SQLMAP?

sqlmap is an open source penetration testing tool that automates the process of detecting and exploiting SQL injection flaws and taking over of database servers. It comes with a powerful detection engine, many niche features for the ultimate penetration tester and a broad range of switches lasting from database fingerprinting, over data fetching from the database, to accessing the underlying file system and executing commands on the operating system via out-of-band connections.

>> Features:

Full support for MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, IBM DB2, SQLite, Firebird, Sybase and SAP MaxDB database management systems.

Full support for six SQL injection techniques: boolean-based blind, time-based blind, error-based, UNION query, stacked queries and out-of-band.

Support to directly connect to the database without passing via a SQL injection, by providing DBMS credentials, IP address, port and database name.

Support to enumerate users, password hashes, privileges, roles, databases, tables and columns.

Automatic recognition of password hash formats and support for cracking them using a dictionary-based attack.

Support to dump database tables entirely, a range of entries or specific columns as per user’s choice. The user can also choose to dump only a range of characters from each column’s entry.

Support to search for specific database names, specific tables across all databases or specific columns across all databases’ tables. This is useful, for instance, to identify tables containing custom application credentials where relevant columns’ names contain string like name and pass.

Support to download and upload any file from the database server underlying file system when the database software is MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft SQL Server.

Support to execute arbitrary commands and retrieve their standard output on the database server underlying operating system when the database software is MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft SQL Server.

Support to establish an out-of-band stateful TCP connection between the attacker machine and the database server underlying operating system. This channel can be an interactive command prompt, a Meterpreter session or a graphical user interface (VNC) session as per user’s choice.

Support for database process’ user privilege escalation via Metasploit’s Meterpreter getsystem command.

How to Connect Two Computers Via Crossover Ethernet Cable?

In this tutorial we are going to show you how to transfer data from one computer to another. We need to PC/Laptop and a crossover cable to transfer data. PC 1 Step1: Go to “Open Networking and Sharing Center“. Step2: Click on “Local Area Connection“. Step3: Now click on “Properties“. Step4: Double click on “Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv6)“. Step5: Click on “Use the following IP address:” and enter the IP address: as 192.168.1.1 and just give a click onSubnet mask. Once done click “Ok” and close it.   PC 2 Step1: Go to “Open Networking and Sharing Center“. Step2: Click on “Local Area Connection“. Step3: Now click on “Properties“. Step4: Double click on “Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv6)“. Step5: Click on “Use the following IP address:” and enter the IP address: as 192.168.1.2 and just give a click onSubnet mask. Once done click “Ok” and close it. Now  two computers are connected. To share files we need to give access to our drives, so follow the c

What is Port (computer networking)

In the internet protocol suite, a port is an endpoint of communication in an operating system. While the term is also used for female connectors on hardware devices (see computer port), in software it is a logical construct that identifies a specific process or a type of network service. A port is always associated with an IP address of a host and the protocol type of the communication, and thus completes the destination or origination network address of a communication session. A port is identified for each address and protocol by a 16-bit number, commonly known as the port number. For example, an address may be 'protocol: TCP, IP address: 1.2.3.4, port number: 80', which may be written 1.2.3.4:80 when the protocol is known from context. Specific port numbers are often used to identify specific services. _________________________

Denial of service (DoS) attack Trojans

These Trojans give the attacker the power to start a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack if there are enough victims. The main idea is that if you have 200 infected ADSL users and you attack the victim simultaneously from each, this will generate HEAVY traffic (more than the victim's bandwidth can carry, in most cases), causing its access to the Internet to shut down. WinTrinoo is a DDoS tool that has recently become very popular; through it, An attacker who has infected many ADSL users can cause major Internet sites to shut down; Early examples of this date back to February 2000, when a number of prominent e-commerce sites such as Amazon, CNN, E*Trade, Yahoo and eBay were attacked. Another variation of a DoS Trojan is the mail-bomb Trojan, where the main aim is to infect as many machines as possible and simultaneously attack specific email address/addresses with random subjects and contents that cannot be filtered. Again, a DoS Trojan is similar to a virus,
