vista infosec boolean-based sql injection: a detailed tutorial
this tutorial provides an in-depth explanation of boolean-based sql injection, specifically tailored to the context of vista infosec's training materials. we'll cover the underlying principles, detection techniques, exploitation strategies, and provide concrete code examples relevant to vista infosec scenarios.
*disclaimer:* this information is provided for educational purposes only. using sql injection techniques without authorization is illegal and unethical. only use this knowledge on systems you own or have explicit permission to test.
*prerequisites:*
basic understanding of sql (especially select statements, where clauses).
familiarity with http requests and responses.
a testing environment (e.g., a vulnerable web application you've built or have explicit permission to test against). a vista infosec vm or lab would be ideal.
*what is boolean-based sql injection?*
boolean-based sql injection is a type of blind sql injection. "blind" means you don't get direct output from the database in the response. instead, you infer information by observing how the application's behavior changes based on the truthiness of the sql conditions you inject. it's "boolean-based" because you're exploiting the application's behavior based on whether a injected sql expression evaluates to `true` or `false`. this is in contrast to error-based sql injection, where errors generated by the database reveal information, or union-based injection, where you can directly append your own queries to the original one.
*why is it called "blind" sql injection?*
because the application doesn't directly display the results of your sql queries. you don't see the output of `select version()` or `select * from users`. instead, you observe changes in the application's response – a difference in a status code, a change in rendered content, a different redirection – to determine whether your injected sql query ...
