Content-Disposition: form-data; name="employee_photo"; filename="r0b0t.php"
Content-Type: image/jpeg
------------------------------------------
Step 6: Forward the request in burpsuite and apply same technique to Upload Employee ID.
step 7: Once all webshells/payloads are uploaded in both "Upload Employee Photo" & "Upload Employee ID" fields, click on ADD RECORD to create the record.
Step 8: Navigate to All employees, click on view employee icon, once the page loads, start nc listener, right click on the employee icon, copy the image location and paste that in browser. You will either have a shell in nc listener or a full RCE through the uploaded image (http://localhost/record/uploads/employees_photos/gQZtGSJyYW4oijD_r0b0t.php?cmd=ls)
