How to kill current Sqlmap as soon as --alert executed?

[rohitcoder]

Hi There,

I am trying to kill / Skip all tests as soon as --alert executed i tried adding this bash script
pgrep -f sqlmap | xargs kill under --alert but it doesn't work.

Any idea how to implement that?

1. Easiest (kills all sqlmap instances):

python sqlmap.py -u "http://testphp.vulnweb.com/artists.php?artist=1" --batch --alert "pkill -f sqlmap.py"

---

2. Dirty hack for killing only the current sqlmap instance:

python sqlmap.py -u "http://testphp.vulnweb.com/artists.php?artist=1" --batch --alert "#" --eval="from lib.core.data import kb;[exit(0) if kb.alerted else None]"

Hi @stamparm

My Usecase is different and your suggested solution doesn't work there, i am running sqlmap.py from another python file using os.system()

I am attaching my output:

In the above screenshot, you can see pkill command executed but the script is still running...

I am running this using python test.py

and this is test.py contents

import os
os.system("python3 tools/sqlmap/sqlmap.py --batch -u TARGET_URL_HERE --alert='pkill -f sqlmap.py'")

Note: I don't want to stop execution of this test.py file, only sqlmap process should be aborted or killed

my last message here goes like this:

p.s. you should really invest some time on your side and see what's going on. I would say that you are missing pkill
