It comes with a powerful detection engine, many niche\r\nfeatures for the ultimate penetration tester and a broad range of switches lasting from database fingerprinting, over\r\ndata fetching from the database, to accessing the underlying file system and executing commands on the operating\r\nsystem via out-of-band connections.\r\nFeatures\r\nFull support for MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, IBM DB2,\r\nSQLite, Firebird, Sybase, SAP MaxDB, Informix, MariaDB, MemSQL, TiDB, CockroachDB,\r\nHSQLDB, H2, MonetDB, Apache Derby, Amazon Redshift, Vertica, Mckoi, Presto, Altibase,\r\nMimerSQL, CrateDB, Greenplum, Drizzle, Apache Ignite, Cubrid, InterSystems Cache, IRIS,\r\neXtremeDB, FrontBase, Raima Database Manager, YugabyteDB, Aurora, OpenGauss, ClickHouse,\r\nVirtuoso, DM8, Snowflake and Spanner database management systems.\r\nFull support for six SQL injection techniques: boolean-based blind, time-based blind, error-based,\r\nUNION query-based, stacked queries and out-of-band.\r\nSupport to directly connect to the database without passing via a SQL injection, by providing DBMS\r\ncredentials, IP address, port and database name.\r\nSupport to enumerate users, password hashes, privileges, roles, databases, tables and columns.\r\nhttp://sqlmap.org/\r\nPage 1 of 3\n\nAutomatic recognition of password hash formats and support for cracking them using a dictionary-based\r\nattack.\r\nSupport to dump database tables entirely, a range of entries or specific columns as per user's choice. The\r\nuser can also choose to dump only a range of characters from each column's entry.\r\nSupport to search for specific database names, specific tables across all databases or specific columns\r\nacross all databases' tables. This is useful, for instance, to identify tables containing custom application\r\ncredentials where relevant columns' names contain string like name and pass.\r\nSupport to download and upload any file from the database server underlying file system when the\r\ndatabase software is MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft SQL Server.\r\nSupport to execute arbitrary commands and retrieve their standard output on the database server\r\nunderlying operating system when the database software is MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft SQL Server.\r\nSupport to establish an out-of-band stateful TCP connection between the attacker machine and the\r\ndatabase server underlying operating system. This channel can be an interactive command prompt, a\r\nMeterpreter session or a graphical user interface (VNC) session as per user's choice.\r\nSupport for database process' user privilege escalation via Metasploit's Meterpreter getsystem\r\ncommand.\r\nRefer to the wiki for an exhaustive breakdown of the features.\r\nDownload\r\nYou can download the latest zipball or tarball.\r\nPreferably, you can download sqlmap by cloning the Git repository:\r\ngit clone --depth 1 https://github.com/sqlmapproject/sqlmap.git sqlmap-dev\r\nDocumentation\r\nsqlmap User's manual.\r\nsqlmap History.\r\nsqlmap Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).\r\nMaterial around sqlmap presented at conferences.\r\nDemo\r\nWatch more demos here.\r\nContribute\r\nAll code contributions are greatly appreciated. First off, clone the Git repository, read the user's manual carefully,\r\ngo through the code yourself and drop us an email if you are having a hard time grasping its structure and\r\nmeaning.\r\nhttp://sqlmap.org/\r\nPage 2 of 3\n\nBug reports are welcome! Please report all bugs on the issue tracker. Our preferred method of patch submission\r\nis via a Git pull request.\r\nEach patch should make one logical change. Please follow the existing stylistic conventions: wrap code to 76\r\ncolumns when possible. Avoid tabs, use four space characters instead. Before you put time into a non-trivial patch,\r\nit is worth discussing it privately by email.\r\nMany people have contributed in different ways to the sqlmap development. You can be the next!\r\nDonate\r\nsqlmap is the result of numerous hours of passionated work from a small team of computer security enthusiasts.
