Pear

EasyWeb Security

Overview

I think I'm a very good developer and can find workarounds to get my things done. As you can see, it was so easy for me to secure my application from all those file inclusion attacks. I've blocked all the common wrappers and protocols, so good luck trying to hack this! I even disabled file uploads and error displays. My application is definitely unhackable now! flag format: flag{}
