For example, an attacker can download the site.ini file and
disclose numerous informations like this :
---- site.ini -----
[DatabaseSettings]
DatabasePluginPath=
# Use either ezmysql or ezpostgresql
DatabaseImplementation=ezmysql
Server=localhost
User=nextgen
Password=nextgen
Database=nextgen
# Enable slave servers
# The slave servers will only be used for read queries
# Useful for load balanced environments
UseSlaveServer=disabled
#SlaveServerArray[]=localhost
#SlaverServerUser[]=nextgen
#SlaverServerPassword[]=nextgen
#SlaverServerDatabase[]=nextgen
# The number of times to reconnect if the first fails
ConnectRetries=0
Charset=iso-8859-1
# Use charset conversion routines in DB if possible
UseBuiltinEncoding=true
Socket=disabled
SQLOutput=disabled
UsePersistentConnection=disabled
[SiteSettings]
# Name of the site, will be used in default templates in titles.
SiteName=eZ publish

# What to do when a module does not exists, use either defaultpage or
displayerror
ErrorHandler=displayerror
# Displayed if an error occurs and ErrorHandler is set to defaultpage
DefaultPage=/content/view/sitemap/2/
# Default access is needed when uri type matching is done, this is
# because with empty urls it's not possible to fetch the access
DefaultAccess=demo
# How the login page should be handled, use embedded to show inside default
pagelayout
# or custom for loginpagelayout.tpl
LoginPage=custom
# The SSL port, the default should be OK for most sites but can be
# changed if different. If the port is detect all redirects will
# be done with https protocol.

&
PhraseSearchText=[hostile_code]&SearchContentClassID=-1&SearchSectionID=-
1&S
earchDate=-1&SearchButton=Search
http://[target]/index.php/[any_section]/">[hostile_code]<
