if your site somewhere has an upload features, if it's not protected against
specific filters, i believe that somebody can upload a php file that way and
execute it once its' uploaded. of course they will need to know where the
file has been saved on the server and so forth, but i believe that's a
potential way of putting files on a server to perform harmful actions.
