This module simply queries the TNS listener for the Oracle SID. With Oracle 9.2.0.8 and above the listener will be protected and the SID will have to be bruteforced or guessed.

Module Ranking and Traits

Module Ranking:

  • normal: The exploit is otherwise reliable, but depends on a specific version and can't (or doesn't) reliably autodetect. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage

This module is a scanner module, and is capable of testing against multiple hosts.

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/oracle/sid_enum
msf auxiliary(sid_enum) > show options
    ... show and set options ...
msf auxiliary(sid_enum) > set RHOSTS ip-range
msf auxiliary(sid_enum) > exploit

Other examples of setting the RHOSTS option:

Example 1:

msf auxiliary(sid_enum) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.3-192.168.1.200

Example 2:

msf auxiliary(sid_enum) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.1/24

Example 3:

msf auxiliary(sid_enum) > set RHOSTS file:/tmp/ip_list.txt

Required Options

  • RHOSTS: The target host(s), range CIDR identifier, or hosts file with syntax 'file:<path>'
