File inclusion is a common programming feature that allows developers to import external code files into their applications. Most programming languages provide built-in functions for this purpose. In PHP, these functions include include(), include_once(), require(), and require_once(). When the included file path is hardcoded, this functionalit ...

Pass-01 Upload a PHP file like test_info.php with content: <?php echo phpinfo(); ?> This fails due to client-side JavaScript validation. Three bypass methods: Disable JS: In Firefox, press F12 → Debugger → Settings → Disable JavaScript. Re-upload the file and access via copied image link. Modify HTML locally: Save page source as custom_ ...

Session Creation Policies Spring Security provides several session creation policies that control how sessions are handled: stateless: Spring Security does not create or utilize any session. This is ideal for stateless API applications and helps conserve server resources. To configure session creation strategy, extend WebSecurityConfigurerAda ...

File Inclusion and Upload Vulnerabilities File inclusion vulnerabilities occur when a web application dynamically includes files based on user input without proper validation, allowing attackers to include malicious files. Modern server-side languages like PHP (since version 5.2.0) often disable remote file inclusion by default, making Local Fi ...

Character encoding represents the fundamental mechanism for translating characters into byte sequences within computing environments. Different databases and systems may utilize varying encoding schemes such as UTF-8, ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1), and GBK. When exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities, attackers can leverage these encoding differences ...

Securing stateless REST APIs relies heavily on short-lived access tokens paired with longer-lived refresh credentials. This pattern prevents frequent re-authentication while limiting exposure from compromised tokens. Below is a practical implementation of this mechanism using Spring Boot, Spring Security, and the JJWT library. Core Dependencies ...

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) is managed by setting specific HTTP response headers, primarily Access-Control-Allow-Origin, which dictates which external domains are permitted to access the resource. When a browser blocks a request due to CORS policy, the error typically resembles: Access to XMLHttpRequest has been blocked by CORS policy: ...
