Title: eBay Union SQL Injection Whilst looking for some bugs in ebay, I came across the domain http://3.ebay.com.au/. It appears to be a domain for phone users on the old "Three" phone carrier/network, but I'm unsure. Three was bought out by Vodaphone awhile ago. The website is the exact same as http://imode.ebay.de/, http://imode.ebay.fr/, etc. On the third tab of the page, there's a link to the 'Categories' section. -- If anybody has every used eBay before, they would understand what this is; a list of categories as to where you can view items to buy.(Or in this case, go into a sub-category.) Instinctively, I saw that there were a few $_GET parameters being used, so I just put a simple apostrophe into the end of the first parameter, "emv_CatParent". To my amazement, it came back with a half-completed page. -- Pretty much the poster-child of a blind SQL Injection. I had trouble actually exploring this vulnerability, as I came to figure out that Microsoft SQL Server was being used for the backend, not a unix-based one. This created problems. Due to my lack of MSDB knowledge, I had to load the website into sqlmap and do everything through there. First, I scanned the parameter to see if my assumption was right. Viola.. [INFO] GET parameter 'emv_CatParent' is 'Generic UNION query (NULL) - 1 to 10 columns' injectable Not only that, but; [01:34:38] [INFO] GET parameter 'emv_CatParent' seems to be 'Microsoft SQL Server/Sybase stacked queries' injectable Which means possible file write/read. - I didn't look further into this though. I explored column names, but no further.
