What are the types of SQL injection exploitations?

There are three main types of SQL injection exploitations: in-band SQL injection, inferential (blind) SQL injection, and out-of-band SQL injection.

What is XPath injection?

XPath injection is a type of web vulnerability where an attacker can manipulate XML-based queries in an application, potentially accessing unauthorized data or modifying the application's behavior.

Study Notes

Web Hacking 3: SQL Injection, XPath Injection, Server Side Template Injection, File Inclusion

  • Lecture on Ethical Hacking, specifically focusing on web hacking techniques
  • Topics covered include SQL injection, XPath injection, server side template injection, and file inclusion
  • SQL injection is a type of web vulnerability where an attacker can manipulate SQL queries to gain unauthorized access to a database
  • There are different types of SQL injection, such as union-based, error-based, and time-based
  • XPath injection is another web vulnerability where an attacker can manipulate XPath queries to extract sensitive information from XML documents
  • Server side template injection is a vulnerability that allows an attacker to inject malicious code into server-side templates, leading to remote code execution
  • Local and remote file inclusion is a vulnerability that allows an attacker to include and execute arbitrary files on a web server
  • SQL databases are commonly used in dynamic websites to store and manage large amounts of data
  • Relational databases are structured with tables, where each column represents a characteristic and each row is a data entry
  • Tables in relational databases are connected through columns, allowing for efficient data management
  • Effective data management is crucial for websites that need to quickly save and access data, such as registered user information
  • Understanding and mitigating web vulnerabilities is important for ethical hackers to protect websites and user data.
