Symlink Private Bypass Shell
Symlink Private Bypass Shell is a special PHP shell used to provide unauthorized access to files and folders on servers. This shell, which is widely used especially in shared hosting environments, allows attackers to access other users’ files. The symlink technique can be used to access the configuration files of other accounts in the system. Especially sensitive files such as config.php are targeted because they contain database passwords and other critical information. By accessing this type of data, Symlink Private Bypass Shell allows the attacker to perform unauthorized operations on the server.
How to Use Symlink Private Bypass Shell
Symlink Private Bypass Shell is also very simple to use. As a first step, the shell file is uploaded to the target system. This is usually done through a file upload vulnerability with weak security measures. When the shell file is executed, a web-based interface is opened and various commands are entered to access other accounts. Symlink Private Bypass Shell uses the symlinking method, which is specifically used to access other users’ files on the server.
With this shell, the attacker can symlink to sensitive configuration files such as config.php, wp-config.php, and configuration.php to access the password and connection information in these files. This allows the attacker to gain full access to other users’ databases and systems.
