YARA Rule Matches
18 rules| Severity | Rule | Hits | Files | Metadata |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HIGH | NoUseRequestMethodUsingDataFromRequestOfUserInput Allows user input data to be used as parameters for the 'request' method. Without proper handling, it could cause a Server Side Request Forgery vulnerability. Which is a type of exploitation in which an attacker abuses the functionality of a server, causing it to access or manipulate information in that server's domain.
