Security Intelligence

💡 File Upload Vulnerabilities

Insecure file upload functionality allows attackers to upload web shells, malware, or scripts that execute on the server. Proper validation must check file content, not just extensions, and uploaded files should be stored outside the web root.

💡 Ransomware-as-a-Service Economy

The RaaS model allows technically unskilled criminals to deploy sophisticated ransomware through affiliate programs. Operators provide the malware, infrastructure, and negotiation services, taking a percentage of ransom payments from their affiliates.
