# Description:
# ============
# With its fully-featured eCommerce engine, VirtueMart is perfect to sell your Goods online
# and drive your Business to new Heights. Despite being Open Source Software it powers large
# Online Shops providing the Performance, Usability and Security you expect from professional Software.
#
# Explantation:
# =============
# There is a Blind SQL Injection vulnerability in the "page" variable of the virtuemart component.
# Because of the fact that Joomla core filters '<' or '>' characters, we can only use '=' to test for true/false
# statements. This of course will send an enormous number of queries the target. During testing, 9145
# queries were sent to fully steal the admin user/hash. This PoC was tested on the latest version
# of virtuemart (1.1.7) at the time of discovery. Depending on your purpose, you may have to adjust the
# timings of benchmark and time to last byte (ttlb).
#
# Tested on Joomla v1.5.22 with virtuemart:
# ==========
# - v1.1.7
# - v1.1.6
# - v1.1.4
#
# [mr_me@pluto com_virtuemart]$ python virtuemart.py -p localhost:8080 -t 192.168.1.7 -d /webapps/joomla/
