). By using non-standard or nested encoding, attackers hope the security filter will miss the pattern, but the underlying file system will still decode and execute the command, leading to unauthorized data access. Impact and Consequences -include-..-2F..-2F..-2F..-2Froot-2F
The provided path: -include-..-2F..-2F..-2F..-2Froot-2F : Attackers can read configuration files containing database
: If an attacker can manipulate paths to include arbitrary files, and if the application is vulnerable to code execution through file inclusion (e.g., PHP's include statement), this could lead to RCE. PHP's include statement)
: Always validate and sanitize any user input used in constructing file paths.
