Hello folks (and Happy New Year), I recently posted this to the PEN-TEST list, but it was suggested that the wider Bugtraq readership might benefit from it. During a recent security review for a customer, I was able to completely compromise his web application in about two hours using SQL Injection, logging in as the Chief Information Officer. I've written a paper on SQL Injection Attacks, not so much as a tutorial, but an illustrated overview showing the process (those with only a casual knowledge of SQL have told me it's easy to understand). Those who write (or test) web applications really ought to know about SQL Injection attacks, because the bad guys certainly do.
