About this blog

Hacking techniques include penetration testing, network security, reverse cracking, malware analysis, vulnerability exploitation, encryption cracking, social engineering, etc., used to identify and fix security flaws in systems.

        PHPMailer versions up to and including 5.2.19 are affected by a
        vulnerability which can be leveraged by an attacker to write a file with
        partially controlled contents to an arbitrary location through injection
        of arguments that are passed to the sendmail binary. This module
        writes a payload to the web root of the webserver before then executing
        it with an HTTP request. The user running PHPMailer must have write
        access to the specified WEB_ROOT directory and successful exploitation
        can take a few minutes.
