Description

This module exploits a file upload vulnerability found in Simple E-Document versions 3.0 to 3.1. Attackers can bypass authentication and abuse the upload feature in order to upload malicious PHP files which results in arbitrary remote code execution as the web server user. File uploads are disabled by default.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use exploit/unix/webapp/simple_e_document_upload_exec
msf exploit(simple_e_document_upload_exec) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(simple_e_document_upload_exec) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(simple_e_document_upload_exec) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(simple_e_document_upload_exec) > exploit

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.
