WordPress Hash Form Plugin RCE
Description
The Hash Form – Drag & Drop Form Builder plugin for WordPress suffers from a critical vulnerability due to missing file type validation in the file_upload_action function. This vulnerability exists in all versions up to and including 1.1.0. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this flaw to upload arbitrary files, including PHP scripts, to the server, potentially allowing for remote code execution on the affected WordPress site. This module targets multiple platforms by adapting payload delivery and execution based on the server environment.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
