Hi folks,
I've written a paper on runtime patching of database server code, which can
be found here:
http://www.ngssoftware.com/papers/violating_database_security.pdf
It discusses "runtime patching" exploits, specifically in the context of
Microsoft SQL Server 2000, but the techniques apply to a wide variety of
targets. The paper also documents a three byte patch that disables access
control in SQL Server, resulting (by way of some tricks) in sysadmin access
for all.
I think this kind of exploit is pretty dangerous and well worth thinking
about, hence the paper. As always, any questions, comments, flames etc will
be gratefully received. Well, received, anyhow. :o)
