👉 The URL weapon is a type of malicious code or exploit that targets vulnerabilities in web application URL handling mechanisms, often used to execute arbitrary commands on a server or inject malicious payloads into web pages viewed by users. This can occur when URLs are improperly sanitized or when web applications fail to validate user input, allowing attackers to manipulate URLs to redirect users to malicious sites or execute commands with elevated privileges. By exploiting these vulnerabilities, the URL weapon can compromise web security, leading to data breaches or further attacks.
