RE: Remote Console on MySQL

["Isidro Ramon Labrador Rodriguez" <irlabrador () sgi es>]

 As far as I know it does not exist something like XP..cmdshell in mySQL. The ways you can interact with OS are:


Import files into a table by using:

LOAD DATA INFILE <path> INTO Table <name_of_the_table>

Export data to a file by using:

SELECT * FROM  <name_of_the_table> INTO OUTFILE <path>

Asunto: Remote Console on MySQL

Im doing a pentest and found 3306 open with no password.  I logged in a root using Navcat MYSQL GUI..

I can select one of the test databases and get a remote console,

mysql>

root@myipaddress does not have privilages to the main mysql database..

My question:

Can you run commands on mysql to interact with the  OS like XP..cmdshell in MSSQL?
