Solving WeCTF Include (GET/POST Requests) смотреть онлайн

Welcome back, everyone!

Turns out web servers are really just glorified input/output servers. You send them a request and they send you back information based on application logic. In this video, we are going to talk about the two main types of web requests, GET and POST requests. To do this we'll use a CTF problem from the WeCTF competition. We start by differentiating GET and POST requests and talking about parameters for each, basically how to send information and receive information from the webserver. This is how we modify login parameters and such. Ultimately to do this we will sit in between the server and browser with something called a web proxy, specifically, a web proxy called Burpsuite.

We then discuss the challenge and finally, I run it in a docker container and show the solution to demonstrate principles of web challenges. Some CTF challenges lack principles and are sort of arbitrary, but while this problem isn't all that complex, it is a good demonstration of what is actually happening from the server's perspective and even shows a bit of PHP in the process. Hopefully you got something out of this video regardless of your experience level, but regardless thank you for stopping by!
