是否可以在GET请求中发送0x00？

Question

I want to send hex data as GET request like somesite.com/page.php?test=hex_string. The data is generated data in hardware and then a GET request is send to a php file.

But when I have 0x00 (NULL) character in the request, it fails with 400 bad request message.

Is there a way I could send NUL character in GET request?

Answer 1

Yes. /?hexdecimal_nullbyte=%00

It fails because web server on the other side prevents null-byte attacks . So, the web server says you it's a 400 bad request , don't do this :)

Answer 2

I have the same problem before. The only solution I found is to convert those null bytes as a decimal before page.php reads it, then in that page.php I convert it back to byte before sending it to the hardware.
