A script uploaded to a server that allows executing system commands via a regular HTTP request — without SSH or server password.
Why it matters
Gives the attacker as much power as the web server process: access to databases, file modification, email sending, and attacks on other services on the same account.
What's missing without it
Without scanning for such patterns, a web shell survives updates and migrations — as it's just a regular PHP file in a directory no one checks.
When it is used
During incident response audits and periodically on services accepting user-uploaded files.
How we use it
Recognizable code patterns: `eval(base64_decode(...))`, `assert($_POST[...])`, `$_POST["x"]($_POST["y"])`.
