DbProtect AppRadar Filters™ - 23 March 2007
Oracle Cursor Injection Attack
A new exploitation technique of Oracle SQL Injection attacks has been
presented at the BlackHat federal conference in Washington D.C. 2007 It
consists of cursors specifically created for injection on functions,
procedures, etc. vulnerable to SQL injection. This technique is making the
exploitation of Oracle SQL injection vulnerabilities easier, based on the
fact that the attacker only requires CREATE SESSION privileges on the
database if the vulnerable function / procedure has public permissions.
DbProtect AppRadar, a solution that provides continuous database activity monitoring,
helps to manage and reduce this risk throughout the patch management
life-cycle. Application Security, Inc. publishes DbProtect AppRadar Filters to
specifically monitor for this new exploitation technique.
