Local File inclusion in PHP

I have a file called config.php in application root \var\www\html and it can be reached at going to http://abc.efg.com/config.php

I also have a file called index.php, in the same folder which has some code to include the file name from a query string parameter and read from it.

Ex: include_once($_GET["page"].php)

I would like to execute a local file inclusion, by passing some php code that would make that include statement print the contents of config.php

First, it is not advisable to use it in this way because it leaves a flaw in your site so you can just do:

if( isset($_GET['page']) && $_GET['page']=='config' ) {
    include 'config.php';
}

However, your problem was at the level of .php, it was necessary to put in string '.php'
