hi ryan. short answer is permissions (most often file write ones)
long answer is: 1) --os-shell/--os-cmd/--os-pwn (STACKED INJECTION CASE) A) for MYSQL (rare in real life), PGSQL current DBMS user has to have UDF create/exec permissions B) MSSQL current DBMS user has to be able to run master.dbo.xp_cmdshell (EXEC permissions, function has to be enabled - sqlmap can try to enable it automatically, function has to exist) 2) --os-shell/--os-cmd/--os-pwn (NON-STACKED INJECTION CASE) A) for MYSQL current DBMS user has to have file write permissions to a reachable web directory kind regards On Sat, Sep 10, 2011 at 8:11 AM, ryan cartner <ryan.cart...@gmail.com> wrote: > what are the actual requirements for --os-cmd/shell/pwn ?
