-
Narrated by:

By:
One cookie set on a subdomain triggered XSS and stole session tokens. One fake image upload gave the attacker a reverse shell.
This episode breaks down two powerful exploits—a cookie-based XSS that bypassed frontend protections, and an RCE through Ghostscript triggered by a disguised PostScript file.
Learn how subtle misconfigurations turned everyday features into full account and server compromise.
