During the authentication in clear between the Client and the server, you'll see the password go across as (hex) B6 A5 86 A5 96 A5 B6 A5 86 A5 96 A5 B6 A5 86 A5 96 A5 for pass 123123123 What is this conversion ?

I have published the conversion process in the new Hacking Exposed 2000 by Osborne Press (see Chapter 11 - Hacking SQL Server). It's a bit long to explain here. Chip

Chip, Wherever i check, your book is not yet available before two at three week, can you explain me the authentication mechanism or send me a dump of the authentication. scouby@worldonline.fr

Well - if you simply CANT wait: 1. Take out the A5's 2. Take the resulting bytes and swap digits (B6 -> 6B) 3. XOR that with 5A 4. The result (31) in this case is ASCII for '1' etc etc

Thk u for the conversion, TDS (Tabular Data Stream) is the format used for communications between a SQL server and client, During the authentication in clear between the Client and the server, what does i will see before the login and the pass ? Does it : user_name, user_name_length, password, password_length Is here the pass is obscated, is the login too ? I don't have a dump of the exchange and i want to know exactly the order of authentication and get what allow me to find the login and the pass. Is there character (hex) just before the login which allow me find it easily. Is the login situated on the 38 bytes.
