| `../../../../../hidden`         | Navigates up multiple directories (five levels in this case) to access `hidden`.       |
| `/dir1/dir2/../../../../hidden` | Navigates to `dir1/dir2`, then back up several levels, eventually accessing `hidden`.  |
| `%00` (null byte)               | Represents a null byte, often used to terminate strings in exploits to bypass filters. |
