This repository contains a single Python script, 'Exploit.py', which is a proof-of-concept exploit for a path traversal vulnerability in Monkey HTTP server version 0.1.4. The script takes a target URL and a file path as arguments. It first checks if the target is running the Monkey HTTP server by sending a HEAD request and looking for the 'Monkey' string in the response. If confirmed, it crafts a malicious GET request with a reverse path traversal payload to retrieve arbitrary files from the server's filesystem (e.g., '/etc/passwd'). The exploit is network-based, requiring the attacker to have access to the target server over HTTP. The code is straightforward, with clear entry points and no obfuscation, and is intended for demonstration or testing purposes.
