I recently came across a script that was oddly encoded. A bit of digging
revealed it was encoded in octal. What puzzles me is why the php interpreter
is able to understand the script.
An example (not from the original script)
require_once ../file.php;
require_once
The characters are encoded in octal and the php interpreter converts them
into the corresponding ASCII characters and then the sequence is represented
as a string which is included?
