Oracle does not support multiple statements per request, unless it is an
anonymous PL/SQL block (which it does not appear to be because of the
success of using a union). Because it is a select statement, you will not
be able to insert/update/delete in anyway unless it is through a function.
With SQL injection and select statements, your options are limited.
Your best bet is to exploit standard Oracle functions and the application
functions. Since you can query the application, you will want to look at
the DBA_OBJECTS, DBA_SOURCE, and DBA_TAB_PRIVS tables to determine what
functions can be called. Any called functions will not be able to write to
the database unless they are marked PRAGMA TRANSACTION. You can find these
by "select * from dba_source where upper(text) like '%PRAGMA TRANSACTION%'".
I sometimes see the application change password function marked as PRAGMA
TRANSACTION.
You will be able to exploit the many buffer overflows and SQL injection in
standard Oracle database functions depending on the security patch level.
You can also have fun with the old standbys of UTL_HTTP and UTL_SMTP (turn
it into a spamming machine).

Hope this helps.

Yes that could work - I know that in MSSQL I would have to do syntax like
';exec sp_addlogin. Once again I don't think Oracle likes terminating the
SELECT with a semicolon in this manner.. Maybe as you say if there is a proc
or function I can make use of in the subselect that might work.
Anyone with a suggestion??

Thanks for the reply Tim. Yes I have read these articles and also the
PeteFinnigan.com site. They are both very good resources but although
they allude to being able to perform UPDATES etc I couldn't see a good
example.
As for the SUBSELECT suggestion, I did think about that one myself
however I didn't know you can embed UPDATES or DELETES within a
SUBSELECT. Could you please provide some sample syntax on this.
Hmm, perhaps you're right, I don't see anything indicating you can use an
update/delete/insert in a subquery. I'm no Oracle expert and I don't have a
system to test on right now. Can you call built-in stored procedures from
your point of injection? Maybe some of them will be of use to you.
good luck,
tim
