Multi-byte Character Set Inspection Demo

In this video we demonstrate our character set inspection script, which can iterate over all character sets looking for multi-byte characters that contain, start with, or end with a particular character. In this case, we iterate through character sets looking for multi-byte characters that end in 0x5c, or the ascii character ‘\’ - these characters are useful for truncating escape characters on apostrophe filters during SQL injection.

The script will be released in conjunction with our SQL injection proof-of-concept and our upcoming workshop at http://hackallthethings.com/

Stay tuned for more previews and demos!
