David has an interesting new paper that shows how PLSQL injection techniques now only require the CREATE SESSION privilege. Get it here. http://www.databasesecurity.com/dbsec/cursor-injection.pdf

I am now blogging from www.oracleforensics.com which accompanies my new book that is now completed.

Interesting Payload to PLSQL exploit at Milw0rm

Interesting exploit payload below.

http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/3177

——————————–

v_commands := 'insert into sys.sysauth$ ' ||
' values' ||
'(' || v_user_id || ',4,' ||
'999,null)';

——————————-

Instead of grant dba to scott the exploit payload inserts the values into sysauth$.

This will bypass many IDS signatures. David mentioned this to me quite a while ago and it is now public so better update those IDS rules.
