How I hacked into a Admin Portal of a Tech Company last night?
The question is Why I initiated the things to hack this companies portal specifically ?
So here’s the answer: In 2018 I hacked into the same companies portal and after that they deployed a fix and I was like satisfied that the vulnerability was fixed.
“With time comes knowledge and with knowledge comes change.”
So, I decided to again browse that Companies Web Portal and see if I can break into that.
WebPortal : https://www.site.com
Directory bursting lead me to the admin login URL and I tried few things but no luck this time.
Admin Url: https://www.site.com/admin
Moving Further I decided to execute time base SQL Injection
I input the username as hello and password as hello in the admin login portal
then intercepted the same request with BurpSuite , POST Request it was.
Started fuzzing the sql commands on the username and password parameters
and it started giving me results and I was able to fetch the database from the web portal.
Reported Immediately to the Company.
