Local File Inclusion Exploit
This exploit allows an attacker to include local files on the target system by manipulating the 'file' parameter in the URL. By specifying a relative path to a sensitive file, such as the PHP configuration file or the password file, the attacker can view the contents of these files.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize user input and validate file paths before including them in the code. Additionally, access controls should be implemented to restrict unauthorized access to sensitive files.
