    Remote File Inclusion

    Remote File Inclusion

    Remote File Inclusion With Remote File Inclusion (RFI for short), attackers can also integrate remote files that are located on other servers. So it is of course very easy to smuggle in your own code.

    What creates file inclusion vulnerabilities?

    File inclusion security gaps arise when unfiltered variables that may contain user input are passed to the include functions mentioned.

    casual-markdown parser Has great potential, but is unfortunately susceptible to RFI and LFI. Appropriate filters ( ../ // ) should still be installed)

    Demo: https://casualwriter.github.io/casual-markdown/?file=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PfeifferchsForks/casual-markdown-page/rfi-demo/source/rfi-demo.md and https://casualwriter.github.io/casual-markdown/?file=//raw.githubusercontent.com/PfeifferchsForks/casual-markdown-page/rfi-demo/source/rfi-demo.md

    Unfortunately, my JS knowledge is not sufficient to prepare a pull request with modified code :/

    Dark Mode By Default for Single Page

    I am just wondering if there is a way to default a single page the always be the darkmode in the webpage. For example I am using website.com/index.html?file=newpage.md and I would like to know how to load it to dark mode by default without needing to press the Alt+K buttons.
