sqlmap is an open source penetration testing tool that automates the process of detecting and exploiting SQL
injection flaws and taking over of database servers. It comes with a powerful detection engine, many niche
features for the ultimate penetration tester, and a broad range of switches including database fingerprinting, over
data fetching from the database, accessing the underlying file system, and executing commands on the operating
system via out-of-band connections.
