|---|---|---|---|---|
| --url | path | /etc/crontab | The --url parameter in maidag can be used to write to arbitrary files (e.g., /etc/crontab) leading to potential root privilege escalation. | |
| --url | path | mbox://user@localhost //etc/crontab | Older payloads use maidag --url with a mbox URL containing //etc/crontab to write to restricted files, enabling privilege escalation in vulnerable versions. |
