20. Perform Exploitation of RCE/File Upload Vulnerability
In this practical, we will learn how to perform the exploitation of RCE (Remote Code Execution) or File Upload vulnerability.
Step 1: Identify the Vulnerability
- Identify a web application that is vulnerable to RCE or File Upload vulnerability. This can be done through manual analysis or using vulnerability scanning tools.
- Confirm the existence of the vulnerability by attempting to upload a malicious file or executing arbitrary code.
Step 2: Exploit the Vulnerability
- Determine the type of vulnerability (RCE or File Upload) and the specific exploit technique to be used.
- Prepare the payload or malicious file that will be used to exploit the vulnerability.
- Upload the payload or malicious file to the target web application.
- Trigger the vulnerability by accessing the uploaded file or executing the payload.
Step 3: Gain Unauthorized Access
- Once the vulnerability is successfully exploited, you may gain unauthorized access to the target system.
- Depending on the nature of the vulnerability, you may be able to execute arbitrary commands, access sensitive information, or perform other malicious activities.
Step 4: Documenting the Process
- Open a new markdown file named
Practical-20.md. - Write a detailed step-by-step explanation of the exploitation process.
- Use appropriate markdown tags to format the document and make it easy to read.
- Include any screenshots or code snippets that are relevant to the process.
- Save the file and submit it as part of your assignment.
Remember to always use these techniques responsibly and with proper authorization.
Good luck with your assignment!
