Extracting the files
To extract the files we can use the tar -cvf command and the tar utility. Notice the tar is used to extract only from the tar encoded files.
In simple words the tar is a utility to archive files together in Linux and also it is used to unarchive.
tar -cvf rick.tar pass.txt web_shell.php
Now we have compressed the file pass.txt and web_shell.php in the rick.tar
To view the files in a tar file, You can use the below command ????????
tar -tvf rick.tar
To extract the file from tar file you can use the below command.
tar -xvf rick.tar
