DBShield

Protects your data by inspecting incoming queries from your application server and rejecting abnormal ones.


How it works?

For example, this is how web server normally interacts with database server:

Sample Web Server and DB

By adding DBShield in front of database server we can protect it against abnormal queries. To detect abnormal queries we first run DBShield in learning mode. Learning mode lets any query pass but it records information about it (pattern, username, time and source) into the internal database.

Learning mode

After collecting enough patterns we can run DBShield in protect mode. Protect mode can distinguish abnormal query pattern, user and source and take action based on configurations.

Protect mode


Demo

For demo, we are using sqlmap(automatic SQL injection and database takeover tool) to exploit the SQL injection vulnerability at user.php

In the first scenario, the sqlmap successfully exploits the SQL injection when web application connected directly to the database(MySQL), In the second scenario, we modify the user.php so DBShield gets between the web application and database which will drop the injection attempt and make sqlmap fail.

Installation

Get it

$ go get -u github.com/qiwihui/DBShield

Then you can see help using "-h" argument:

$ $GOPATH/bin/DBShield -h
DBShield 1.0.0-beta3
Usage of DBShield:
  -a	get list of abnormal queries
  -c file
      config file (default "/etc/dbshield.yml")
  -h	show help
  -k	show parsed config and exit
  -l	get list of captured patterns
  -version
      show version

and run it with your configuration, like:

$ $GOPATH/bin/DBShield -c config.yml

see sample configuration file
