File inclusion vulnerability: Programming languages, Overview & Types of Inclusion

A File Inclusion Vulnerability is a type of web vulnerability that is most commonly found to affect web applications that rely on a scripting run time. This issue is caused when an application builds a path to executable code using an attacker-controlled variable in a way that allows the attacker to control which file is executed at run time. A file…
