Fedora Project

Write an analysis/documentation for a Unrestricted File Upload Vulnerability.

Many web apps allow users to upload files, such as icons, images, etc. Uploaded files may pose a considerable risk if not handled. An attacker could send a form data POST request with a typical filename or Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions(MIME) and can cause Arbitrary Code Execution(ACE). You need to write an article on how this attack works and what are the preventive measures. (It will be great if you can provide a Concept and code for the exploit.)

Deliverables:

Make a Pagure/GitHub repository with the article and the code(include the concept) and share the link.
