This module executes an arbitrary native payload on a Microsoft SQL server by loading a custom SQL CLR Assembly into the target SQL installation, and calling it directly with a base64-encoded payload. The module requires working credentials in order to connect directly to the MSSQL Server. This method requires the user to have sufficient privileges to install a custom SQL CRL DLL, and invoke the custom stored procedure that comes with it. This exploit does not leave any binaries on disk. Tested on MS SQL Server versions: 2005, 2012, 2016 (all x64).
Windows
x86, x64
To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/windows/mssql/mssql_clr_payload
msf exploit(mssql_clr_payload) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(mssql_clr_payload) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(mssql_clr_payload) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(mssql_clr_payload) > exploit
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
