Python Script to Log Into DVWA: article 201303

Very similar to my last post this is just a simple script using Python with Mechanize to log into Damn Vulnerable Web App from OWASP.

Here is the script:

#!/usr/bin/python

import mechanize

browser = mechanize.Browser()

browser.open("http://192.168.1.152/dvwa")
print "#" *50
print "# " + browser.title()
print "#" *50 + "\n"

# There is only one form on this page so I jump right in

browser.select_form(nr=0)

#below I am filling out the form fields and submitting
browser.form['username'] = 'admin'
browser.form['password'] = 'admin'
browser.submit()

print "#" *50
print "# " + browser.title()
print "#" *50

Here is a screen shot of the output.  Notice I print the title of the "Log In" page and once credentials are submitted the I print the title of the "Welcome" page.
