You're correct of course, I just want to note that the exfiltrated data could be in any part of the URL, so the absence of a query string doesn't indicate that no payload has been encoded into the URL. Arbitrary example, you can include credentials in a URL, so you could encode the exfiltrated data into a password.

Right, I should have been more clear. It's not about the ?, it's about not being able to dynamically construct a URL at all.

Otherwise you could set up wildcard DNS and extract data to base64encodedstolendata.evil.com
