Mysql Show Table Status

Executes the MySQL metadata enumeration command SHOW TABLE STATUS, which retrieves detailed information about tables in the current database, including engine type, row count estimates, data size, index size, creation/update timestamps, and collation. In intrusion sessions, this is typically used for database reconnaissance to assess table structure, storage engines (e.g., InnoDB/MyISAM), and data volume before dumping data, modifying schema, or identifying high-value targets.
