Multiple variables using awk and for loop for web form submission
Hi

My goal is to fill an HTML form and submit.

What I have managed to do:

1. curl command to fill up the form and submit
2. a file which has the input

curl command:
Code:
curl -v -b cookie.txt -d __CSRFToken__=dc23d5da47953b3b390ec68d972af10380908b14 -d do=create -d a=open -d email=test@test.net -d name=fullname -d source=Phone -d topicId=12 -d 198855e3047ff8a0=issuesummary1 -d message=details  http://localhost:8000/input.php

The input file looks like this;
Code:
57582	CVE-2011-3389	6.4	Medium	x.x.x.x	tcp	443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	14			5	2	3months	0:00	s3	6
57582	CVE-2011-3389	6.4	Medium	x.x.x.x	tcp	8443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	4			3	2	3months	0:00	s3	6
58751	CVE-2011-3389	4.3	High	x.x.x.x	tcp	8443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	5			5	3	2months	0:00	s3	3
65821	CVE-2013-2566	4.3	Medium	x.x.x.x	tcp	8443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	6			6	2	3months	0:00	s3	6
65821	CVE-2015-2808	4.3	Critical	x.x.x.x	tcp	8443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	78			7	4	1month	0:00	s3	5
78479	CVE-2014-3566	4.3	Medium	x.x.x.x	tcp	8443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	5			7	2	3months	0:00	s3	6
80035	CVE-2014-8730	4.3	Medium	x.x.x.x	tcp	8443	Bad vulnerability, fix ti	Full Name	email@xxxxxx.net	3			7	2	3months	0:00	s3	6

So every line of input will be assigned to the curl variable data (-d) for example:

Code:
curl -v -b cookie.txt -d __CSRFToken__=dc23d5da47953b3b390ec68d972af10380908b14 -d do=create -d a=open -d email=email@xxxxxx.net -d name=Full Name -d source=2months -d topicId=4 -d 198855e3047ff8a0=8443 -d message=Bad vulnerability, fix ti  http://localhost:8000/input.php


I was thinking

Code:
for i in $(awk -F "\t" '//{print $0}' inputfile)
do
"the curl command"
done

but I know it wont work.

I think I should assign the awk output to an array and use for loop to iterate the array. But how do i parse each field and then each line in the input file?

Please help. Thanks.
