Mastering SQL Injection Course Overview

The "Mastering SQL Injection" course is a comprehensive training program designed to educate learners on one of the most dangerous web vulnerabilities: SQL Injection (SQLi). This course offers a deep dive into the world of SQLi, from understanding the basics to mastering advanced exploitation techniques.

Module 1 sets the stage by providing an overview of the course content. Module 2 introduces SQL Injection, explaining its significance and potential impact. As learners progress to Module 3, they will learn how to test for SQLi vulnerabilities within applications. Module 4 focuses on reviewing code to identify SQLi flaws.

In Module 5, the course shifts to exploiting SQL Injection vulnerabilities, and Module 6 builds on this by discussing common exploit techniques. Learners will then explore using stacked queries in Module 7, followed by techniques for identifying the database in Module 8. Subsequent modules, such as Module 9 and Module 10, cover non-blind fingerprinting and banner grabbing, respectively, while Module 11 delves into blind fingerprinting.

Modules 12 through 15 guide learners through extracting data using UNION statements, matching columns, data types, and conditional statements. The course then presents different approaches to SQL Injection, namely time-based (Module 16), error-based (Module 17), and content-based (Module 18) techniques.

Module 19 discusses stealing password hashes, and Module 20 introduces out-of-band communication. Module 21 provides in-depth knowledge on exploiting blind SQL Injection. In Module 22, the exploitation extends to the operating system level.

Finally, Module 23 and Module 24 address defenses against SQL Injection, covering both code level and platform-level defenses. By the end of this course, learners will be well-equipped with the knowledge and skills to identify, exploit, and defend against SQL Injection attacks, enhancing their cybersecurity expertise.
