Destructive one word unix commands
Hi I'm trying to hack a web server as part of an assignment and have gotten it to exec commands but I cannot pass commands arguments as the program splits up space separated words and only execs the first one. Is there anything I can pass to cause any sort of damage in one word? Btw webserver runs as root.

Also is it possible to host a script and just pass the location of that to the web server? Eg &_cmd=10.10.1.3/tmp/script.sh&blahblah

Would that work?


Thanks

We don't support hacking here. If this is an assignment (I'm assuming homework) then this is the wrong forum. Please repost in the homework forum, there is a template you fill out first.
