SSTI Payloads

Always start with basic detection payloads before attempting more complex exploits

Different template engines require different payload structures

Watch for error messages that might reveal the template engine in use

Use URL encoding to bypass WAF and input filters

Test payloads in different contexts (URL parameters, form fields, headers)

Document successful payloads for each template engine encountered

Be cautious with RCE payloads in production environments

Consider the impact of failed payloads on the application
