ALCASAR 'index.php' Crafted HTTP Header RCE attempts to exploit a remote code execution vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input to the 'host' HTTP header. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary commands subject to the privileges of the web server user
