In the competitive landscape of database technologies, Oracle Database maintains its dominance and is widely adopted by Fortune 500 companies due to its scalability, performance, and security features. However, vulnerabilities exist, particularly with the emergence of the Oracle Database Attacking Tool (ODAT), a Python-based tool used by both penetration testers and threat actors to exploit weaknesses within Oracle Database systems. Affected: Oracle Database, penetration testers, threat actors, enterprise data management.
Keypoints :
- Oracle Database is a leading relational database management system trusted by prominent companies.
- ODAT can identify and exploit vulnerabilities in Oracle Database environments.
- Penetration testing and identifying configuration weaknesses are facilitated by tools like ODAT.
- Docker can be used to create environments for testing ODAT simulations.
- ODAT integrates various functionalities for credential brute-forcing, file manipulation, and executing arbitrary commands.
- Different attack vectors include SID enumeration, TNS listener probing, and SQL shell access.
MITRE Techniques :
- Credential Dumping (T1003): Using the `passwordguesser` module to brute-force valid username and password combinations.
- Network Sniffing (T1040): Scanning the network to identify open ports and services using the `utltcp` module.
- Exploitation for Client Execution (T1203): Exploiting vulnerabilities via the `tnspoison` module for man-in-the-middle attacks.
- File and Directory Permissions Modification (T1222): Utilizing the `utlfile` module to delete critical system files.
- Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059): Gaining a reverse shell utilizing the `externaltable` module after uploading a malicious script.
Indicator of Compromise :
- No IoC Found
