What is LFI / RFI?

Local/Remove File Inclusion vulnerability allows an attacker to exploit a dynamic file inclusion mechanism of a web application to access files outside the intended spectre.

LFI - Local File Inclusion - used to include from local filesystem, e.g.

  • /etc/passwd
  • /etc/shadow
  • /var/log/apache2/access_log
