  1. Depends on how the database/system is implemented?

    Part 1: Getting access to the database.

    SQL injection through web applications is usually the most common ways, as web applications are so common these days. What people sometimes forgot is that binary/native/thick applications can also communicate with databases, and sometimes a network port is available. But usually if the application is in the public domain a web gateway is used to proxy the database traffic; as opposed to internal (eg. corporate) domains will have the databases accessible across an internal network.

    With logical access to the database services; you can try many other attacks; brute-force the login, apply any remote code election exploits, some database versions even suffer authentication bypasses.

    Part 2: Configuration of the database

    With access to the database, the next step is usually a privilege escalation to get database administrator (DBA) privileges; some databases are misconfigured that you may have logged in as the DBA. But if you haven't, your looking for a weakness in the functionality or a stored procedure to give you extra permissions or alternatively brute-force the dab admins credentials.

    Once dba privileges have been achieved you can plunder all the databases stored on the affected server. In addition to all the associated users passwords hashes; its likely that passwords are repeated by developers on other systems, or could be domain-accounts leading to further compromise.

  2. Your bug is to do with size - specifically size of memory.

    Each key-press, and some key-combos use two bytes {modifier byte, key byte} and micro controller has limited memory, as the payload needs to be read into memory before swapping to storage mode.

    You have 1-2KB (from memory) so you need less than that number of bytes to work correctly.

    As for the firmware, googlecode changed their download policy, there is a bunch of updates in google drive, the link is on the ducky decode homepage.

    My personal circumstances have changed which means I don't have a lot of time to support this project these days, but the ranks have expanded with a few ducky developers.

    Not sure whats been going on lately...

  3. Device control software is more advanced these days compared to the original stance 2 years ago.

    1) You need the same device class, e.g. if the device is mass storage, you can't use the composite firmware, you have to use a mass-storage firmware

    2) You need to change the serial number and other device strings in the source and recompile - no easy way to do this rather than build your own firmware.

    3) Device control is (or future) performing stack fingerprinting; this may mean further changes would be necesary in the firmware.

  4. One thing I just noticed, if I hold down the button and plug it in, I get AT32UC3B DFU in the Other Devices section. I'm still not seeing it anywhere when I plug it in as is.

    OK this again is expected behaviour, DFU mode is the bootloader-mode for installing new firmware; which we know already works.

    Depending on the firmware; something should appear within "Human Interface Device", "Removeable Media", "Other Devices" or "Universal Serial Bus Controllers"

  5. - Plug it in to the Windows laptop without an SD Card: Get a solid red light

    This is correct and expected behaviour

    - Plug it in to the Windows laptop with ANY of the 3 SD cards I own: No LED light at all. If I wait some time (maybe a few minutes), it will turn on as a solid red light.

    Sounds possibly like a driver issue

    - Plug it in to the Windows laptop with ANY of the 3 SD cards and then push the button: Again, no LED light at all

    Sounds possibly like a driver issue

    I need to know more about how the ducky shows up in device manager to potentially diagnose your issues?

    Its odd that you've been able to flash the Ducky as usually faulty Ducky's aren't re-flashable.

    Also how are your sdcards formatted?

  6. When I wrote the firmware the original duck had two leds red and green, depending on the firmware they mean different things...

    Red usually denotes errors.

    However, when it comes to Mass Storage (MS) it can mean 1 of 2 things error, or writing to MS.

    The green is suppose to mean working / reading, guess this is the blue?

    Ducky is probably fine, the half blue half red indicates to me c_duck firmware. Sounds like the ole green is now a blue LED.

    Everything sounds ok!
