Yeah, i understand how eval works, but i am not able to change the way the page was programmed, so, maybe a can put something like -- <? eval("phpinfo();") ?> -- inside the table field but after that, the page will read: <img src= <? eval("phpinfo") ?> > but as String, always as String. If the php page would have been programmed with a hard coded "eval" like: <img src= <? eval( getImagefromDB() ) > then after reading my code inserted into the database, it would works!!! So, the only thing a can do, is something about XSS as Jim Halfpenny said. Thanks anyway!!!! On 10/17/07, Matthew Lee Hinman <matthew.hinman () gmail com> wrote:
Check out using the 'eval' operator in PHP, here's the doc page: http://us2.php.net/eval From the page: "eval - Evaluate a string as PHP code" This should be able to do what you want. - Lee * Jim Halfpenny <jimsmailinglists () gmail com> [2007-10-16 07:52:21 +0100]:Hi, The problem with this approach is that the content is most likely loaded in by the PHP preprocessor, and it will not usually go back and parse any code inserted. Consider this pseudocode: print ("print(\"World\")") The preprocessor will print the string print("World") but it will not execute the text string as if it were code. The same is true if the text string is retrieved from a database and not a literal. print("<img src=\"" . getImageNameFromDB() . "\">") What you have is an opportunity for cross-site scripting, not PHP code injection.

I mean: inside the html page the images are taken from database so... in a black box perspective a think is something like: <img src=$img> and i know where is the table which reads this image name, then i can update the table and instead of read something like $img = picture.gif, reads some thing like "phpinfo();". but as you know this is only a string, even though if i update the table with: eval("phpinfo();") its also a string .... so it dont get executed!! So, i would like you help me, what can i do if i am able to insert, create and update tables but unable to run store procedures, or bulk or bcp!!!!!
