Hello, I’m currently going through the Data Exiltration lab of the Penetration Testing Prerequisites section.
I’ve run into a problem while trying to do the lab. I’m supposed to set up a python server and upload a file to this server from a webshell, using curl.
I’m following the Solution section because of the problem I’ve run into. When I try to upload this file to my python server, I get the following error:
Exception happened during processing of request from (‘192.48.237.3’, 35692)
Traceback (most recent call last):

KeyError: ‘content-lenght’
Nothing I do seems to work. I’ve seen some videos of people going through this same lab, doing everything exactly the same as I am and it works for them.
Any help would be appreciated. I could just mark the lab as completed, since I already know what I’m supposed to do, but I want to get the flag and know what’s happening.
