ok , lets say that I enter a website which is for example
http://www.example.com/index.php
in this website I found three files
*file1
*file2
*file3
when I click on the first file namely file1 , the website redirects me to another website address which is for example:
http://www.example.com/404.php in which is it written 404 page not found.
and the same for the file2 , and file3
normally the page must be
http://www.example.com/index.php/file1
because file1 is inside index.php file but the website redirect to
http://www.example.com/404.php .
another thing: When I write the address like that :
http://www.example.com/index.php/file1 only the color of the page becomes white but it does not change and the file1 does not open . It becomes white because it is vulnerable to some URL exploit
it is clear that it is a security tactic to deny the access of these files (file1 , file2 , file3) to unprivileged users . This process uses .htaccess file redirection .
my question is how to bypass this redirection and access the file1 , file2 , file3 ( in our context of course)???????
what is the method used (in our context , I mean my whole example) to bypass redirection and get the file if , of course, what I write is true , I mean if it is a redirection????????
and between , this is not meant to be hacking or something in the sort , but it is for learning , for educational purpose
