How can knowing the vendor and version of the database be useful for an intruder?

What will be an ideal response?


The vendor and version of the database provide an intruder a great deal of information, allowing more of an opportunity for attack. Furnished with this information, the intruder can infer such things as the SQL language syntax to use to construct injections, the available default procedures that can be called to obtain more information, the way the database processes queries, and the storage mechanisms utilized.
