WordPress Photo Gallery Unrestricted File Upload
Description
Photo Gallery Plugin for WordPress contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary PHP code. This flaw exists because the photo-gallery\photo-gallery.php script allows access to filemanager\UploadHandler.php. The post() method in UploadHandler.php does not properly verify or sanitize user-uploaded files. This module was tested on version 1.2.5.

- 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.
