ok this is solved it wanted to get access of WEB-INF so when you try like below
pass the query parameter file=web.xml&path=../WEB-INF/
you will get /var/lib/tomcat9 as response which is installation directory

What are the HTTP parameters necessary to upload a file
parameters are path,file
for the next question to you need to prepare URL like below, basically they want to understand how a hacker will gain access to unauthorized file
<targetserver>?file=web.xml&path=../WEB-INF/
Once you run above URL in the browser you will get /var/lib/tomcat9 as response
