This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/multi/http/phpfilemanager_rce.rb) that exploits a remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2015-5958) in phpFileManager version 0.9.8. The exploit targets the web interface of phpFileManager, typically located at /phpFileManager-0.9.8/index.php, and allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands on the server. The module works by first simulating a login (with an empty password), then sending a GET request with the 'cmd' parameter to trigger command execution. The exploit supports both Unix and Windows platforms and leverages Metasploit's payload system, allowing for customizable command execution. The repository is weaponized, as it is part of the Metasploit framework and provides a fully functional, customizable exploit module.
