Loading vulnerability…
The Tribulant Slideshow Gallery plugin for WordPress, prior to version 1.4.7, contains an unrestricted file upload vulnerability. Authenticated users can upload arbitrary files, including PHP scripts, to the wp-content/uploads/slideshow-gallery/ directory. These files can then be executed by accessing them directly, leading to remote code execution on the server.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting an authenticated file upload vulnerability (CVE-2014-5460) in the WordPress SlideShow Gallery plugin (version 1.4.6 and below). The exploit requires valid WordPress credentials and leverages a custom file upload mechanism in the plugin to upload arbitrary PHP files to the server. The module logs in as the supplied user, uploads a PHP payload to the '/wp-content/uploads/slideshow-gallery/' directory, and then triggers the payload by sending an HTTP request to the uploaded file. The exploit provides remote code execution capabilities as the web server user. The code is written in Ruby and follows the standard Metasploit module structure, with clear separation of initialization, authentication, exploitation, and cleanup steps. No hardcoded endpoints or IPs are present; all endpoints are relative to the target WordPress installation.
