What they could let someone do.
What could happen
- Running code
Someone could run their own code on the server and take the site over: add malware, send spam, steal data, or use it to attack others.
How: Part of the software treats something it was sent as instructions to follow, or keeps an uploaded file somewhere it can be run.
Read about it here - Reading files
Someone could read files on the server they should never see, such as the settings file holding the database password, or delete files the site needs.
How: The software takes a file name from a request and does not check that it stays inside its own folder.
