In our search for vendors that actually run the authorization systems, we found a site called FlyCASS which pitches small airlines a web-based interface to CASS. Intrigued, we noticed every airline had its own login page, such as Air Transport International (8C) being available at /ati. With only a login page exposed, we thought we had hit a dead end. Just to be sure though, we tried a single quote in the username as a SQL injection test, and immediately received a MySQL error: This was a very bad sign, as it seemed the username was directly interpolated into the login SQL query. Sure enough, we had discovered SQL injection and were able to use sqlmap to confirm the issue. Using the username of ' or '1'='1 and password of ') OR MD5('1')=MD5('1, we were able to login to FlyCASS as an administrator of Air Transport International!

How to test app for the SQL injection

During code review

Check for any queries to the database are not done via prepared statements.

If dynamic statements are being made please check if the data is sanitized before used as part of the statement.

Auditors should always look for uses of sp_execute, execute or exec within SQL Server stored procedures. Similar audit guidelines are necessary for similar functions for other vendors.

Automated Exploitation

Most of the situation and techniques on testing an app for SQLi can be performed in a automated way using some tools (e.g. perform an automated auditing using SQLMap)

Equally Static Code Analysis Data flow rules can detect of unsanitised user controlled input can change the SQL query.

Stored Procedure Injection

When using dynamic SQL within a stored procedure, the application must properly sanitise the user input to eliminate the risk of code injection. If not sanitised, the user could enter malicious SQL that will be executed within the stored procedure.

Time delay Exploitation technique

The time delay exploitation technique is very useful when the tester find a Blind SQL Injection situation, in which nothing is known on the outcome of an operation. This technique consists in sending an injected query and in case the conditional is true, the tester can monitor the time taken to for the server to respond. If there is a delay, the tester can assume the result of the conditional query is true. This exploitation technique can be different from DBMS to DBMS.

http://www.example.com/product.php?id=10 AND IF(version() like '5%', sleep(10), 'false'))--

In this example the tester is checking whether the MySql version is 5.x or not, making the server delay the answer by 10 seconds. The tester can increase the delay time and monitor the responses. The tester also doesn't need to wait for the response. Sometimes they can set a very high value (e.g. 100) and cancel the request after some seconds.

Out-of-band Exploitation technique

This technique is very useful when the tester find a Blind SQL Injection situation, in which nothing is known on the outcome of an operation. The technique consists of the use of DBMS functions to perform an out of band connection and deliver the results of the injected query as part of the request to the tester's server. Like the error based techniques, each DBMS has its own functions. Check for specific DBMS section.

Learn the 5 Stages of Ethical Hacking

With threats on the digital platform ever-present today, ethical hacking has emerged as an essential method for protecting systems, networks, and information. As malicious hackers use vulnerabilities to carry out crime, ethical hackers (or white hat hackers) utilize their craft for good purposes — finding and fixing vulnerabilities before threat actors have the chance to do so. But ethical hacking is not a random process. It follows a methodical process to make every step legal, efficient, and in accordance with the security goals of the organization. This process is typically in five stages, which are very specific and trace ethical hackers from reconnaissance to reporting. Let us dive into detail about what these stages involve and why they're crucial for a successful cyber defense strategy. Phase 1: Reconnaissance (Information Gathering) Also known as: Footprinting Reconnaissance is the first and, arguably, the most important phase of ethical hacking. It's akin to the "research" phase. Ethical hackers find out as much as they can about the target before they try to break into it. This phase lays the groundwork for everything that follows. Aims: •Get familiar with the digital footprint of the target •Identify weak spots and vulnerable entry points • Steal away undetected while gathering information Methods Used: • Passive Reconnaissance – No contact with the target (e.g., use of WHOIS lookup, DNS records, social media, public databases). • Active Reconnaissance – Direct contact with the system (e.g., ping sweeps, port scanning, traceroutes). Tools: •Maltego •Nmap •Recon-ng •Google Dorking Why it matters: Proper reconnaissance saves time and makes the rest of the hacking process easier. It also replicates the first steps taken by real-world cyber attackers.

Phase 2: Scanning (Probing for Weaknesses) After the ethical hacker has sufficient surface information, scanning is the next phase where more intensive probing is done to identify particular vulnerabilities in the system. Objectives: • Discover open ports and services • Detect live systems • Identify running OS and applications • Discover known vulnerabilities

Methods: • Port Scanning – Scanning which ports are open and what services are running.

• Network Mapping – Knowledge of the network topology and the identification of the hosts. • Vulnerability Scanning – System scanning for known configuration or software vulnerabilities. Tools: • Nessus • Nikto • OpenVAS • Wireshark Why it matters: Scanning gives the hacker a technical snapshot of how healthy the system is and assists the hacker in determining which vulnerabilities to exploit during the exploitation phase.

Phase 3: Access Gaining (Exploitation) This is where ethical hacking really gets to work and occurs. The hacker attempts to break into the system by taking advantage of the weaknesses revealed in the scanning. It sounds like the climax, but it's a very choreographed and strategic move that makes ethical hacking. Objectives: • Use a known exploit to gain access • Increase privileges (for example, from guest to admin) • Identify the amount of potential damage that an actual perpetrator might do Methods • Buffer overflow attacks • tSQL injection • Brute-force password cracking • Misconfiguration exploitation Tools: • Metasploit • Hydra • John the Ripper • SQLMap Why it matters: Access that is gained allows organizations to see how much access an attacker would have, giving them a chance to cut off critical points of access before damage is being caused.

Phase 4: Maintaining Access (Persistence) During this phase, the ethical hacker mimics what an actual attacker would do once they have compromised the system — maintain access to keep gathering data or installing malware. Objectives: •Create backdoors or remote access tools •Mimic advanced persistent threats (APT) •Illustrate long-term risk exposure Methods: •Installing Trojans or rootkits (ethically and with permission) •Creating rogue user accounts •Altering system services for covert access Tools: •Netcat •Backdoor Factory •MSFVenom Why it matters: This stage assists in determining how long a system might remain compromised undetected — an important consideration when analyzing incident response measures. Phase 5: Covering Tracks & Reporting While malicious hackers attempt to cover their tracks, ethical hackers do the opposite — they make sure all actions taken are logged, traced, and completely documented. Reporting is the last and possibly most useful step of the ethical hacking process.

Goals: • Restore the system to normal • Report to the organization • Deliver remediation steps that are actionable What's in the Report: • Disclosed vulnerabilities • Attacks tried and success rates • Possible impact of each vulnerability • Fix recommendations and improvements Why it matters: The final-report is a blueprint that the organization can use to make its defenses harder. It transforms an ethical hack from a test into an actionable business tool.

The Legal and Ethical Side It's important to emphasize: Ethical hacking should be done with the right permission. That is, written permission, well-delineated scope, and test boundaries. Unapproved hacking—no matter what "noble cause"—is against the law and punishable by it. Why the 5 Phases are Important Together, these five phases create a repeatable, effective cycle of security testing. They: •Echo the methods of actual attackers •Detect potential threats prior to exploitation •Enhance organizational cybersecurity stance •Meet standards such as ISO/IEC 27001, PCI-DSS, etcFinal Thoughts Ethical hacking is not merely about cracking open systems—it's about learning them, enhancing them, and helping to make the internet a more secure place. From IT managers to aspiring cybersecurity analysts to entrepreneurs, recognizing the five stages of ethical hacking can assist you in making better, more secure decisions. With increasing cybercrime, ethical hacking is no longer a choice — it's a necessity. And as with any strategic process, its success depends on how systematically and responsibly it's carried out.

The CCP's Organized Hacking Business

Today, on March 26, 2024, The US sanctions against the CCP hackers behind critical infrastructure attacks are widely reported. According to the indictment document:

"https://www.justice.gov/opa/media/1345141/dl?inline"

All of the Defendants indicted work for Wuhan Xiaoruizhi Science & Technology Co., Ltd. (武汉晓睿智科技有限责任公司) , a looks-like "civilian company" but actually created by the State Security Department of Hubei Province of China. China's enterprise registration information shows that the Company's business activities are "technology development, technical consulting, technology transfer, technical services, sales of high-tech products and accessories for high-tech products; design and system integration of computer information networks; import and export of goods, technology import and export, etc."

"http://www.21hubei.com/gongshang/whxrzkjyxzrgs.html"

Such too broad business description also appears in several MSS related "civilian-alike" companies but they were eventually revealed by the US government as the CCP's organized hackers.

Further research revealed that the CCP has been working on foreign web intrusion technology as a mission. Here is an example.

On China's enterprise search website Qcc.com/企查查, I found a company named "Hubei Huike Information Technology Co., Ltd/湖北灰科信息技术有限公司". The Company mainly serves for "China's public security, national security, the 3rd Department of the General Staff of the PLA (China Cyber Army) and the government"

"https://www.qcc.com/"

In 2016, the company posted its hiring information on ihonker/Honker Union/中国红客联盟 website:

"https://www.ihonker.com/thread-7922-1-1.html"

Here is the translation of the hiring requirements based on Google Translation:

"job requirements: 1. Be familiar with the steps, methods and processes of intrusion testing; 2. Be familiar with common attacks and defense methods, familiar with web security and intrusion technology, and be able to conduct web intrusion testing, WEB code vulnerability mining and analysis by yourself; 3. Be familiar with the working principles of mainstream operating systems, databases, networks and application systems, and fully master common security vulnerabilities and exploitation techniques; 4. Familiar with mainstream Web security technologies, including SQL injection, XSS, CSRF and other OWASP TOP 10 security risks; 5. Be familiar with mainstream domestic and foreign WEB security products and tools, such as: Nmap, SqlMap, Pangolin, APPScan, Inspect, wvs and other Web scanning tools; 6. Be able to build demonstration environments for various intrusion tests; be able to skillfully use various means to effectively intrude the system; 7. Familiar with the principles and operations of firewalls, IDS, IPS, vulnerability scanning, and intrusion testing, familiar with the configuration of switches and routers, and familiar with host system (unix, windows) security protection technology; 8. Proficient in using common intrusion tools, such as metasploit, etc.; 9. Have good teamwork spirit, professionalism, communication skills and document writing skills; 10. Proficient or familiar with one or more scripting languages such as perl/python/javascript/shell; 11. Applicants who can independently write relevant hacking tools, have published articles on well-known websites and forums, or have achieved excellent results in various competitions will be given priority. 12. No cybercrime record."

As you can see, the company targets web security vulnerabilities, focuses on intrusion and hacking.

A reply to this hiring post indicated the Company's relationship with "中国红客联盟（ihonker.org）. The reply says "Support ihonker.org".

"https://www.ihonker.com/thread-7922-1-1.html"

As per Baidu and Wikipedia, 中国红客联盟 is also known as H.U.C, Honker Union, a group for hacktivism, mainly present in China.

"https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E4%B8%AD%E5%9B%BD%E7%BA%A2%E5%AE%A2%E8%81%94%E7%9B%9F/837764"

"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honker_Union"

Although Wikipedia cited a source saying "there is no evidence of Chinese government oversights of the group" and the web address has changed, the "org" indication in the reply is pretty clear about the website's connection with China's government. The "support ihonker.org" reply to the China's-National-Security-related Company's post is overwhelming. The picture below reflects part of the same replies:

"https://www.ihonker.com/thread-7922-1-1.html"

A Mandarin social media based in Canada, iask.ca, aka 加拿大家园 listed some of Honker Union's attacks against foreign governments:

"April to May 2001: Counterattack against the US Internet... ...successfully counterattacked and captured the White House website, and even hung the five-star red flag on the official website of the White House"

"https://www.iask.ca/news/240712"

"September 18, 2010 Attack on Japanese network"

"... ... launched a large-scale attack on Japanese government websites"

"https://www.iask.ca/news/240712"

China's government will surely deny its connection with such organized attacks, but the fact speaks for itself.
