In WP All Import plugin versions prior to 3.2.4 for WordPress, there is no restriction on unauthenticated requests to the adminInit function. This allows attackers to invoke administrative functionality without authentication, potentially leading to privilege escalation or unauthorized administrative actions.

This repository is a proof-of-concept (POC) exploit for CVE-2015-9331, an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the WP All Import WordPress plugin (versions <= 3.2.3). The repository contains three files: a README.md with detailed vulnerability and usage information, poc.py (the main exploit script), and shell.php (a simple PHP webshell payload). The Python script prompts the user for a target URL, constructs a POST request to the vulnerable /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint to upload the webshell, and then calculates the expected location of the uploaded shell using the server's HTTP Date header and an MD5 hash. If successful, the attacker can access the webshell and execute arbitrary PHP code on the target server. The exploit is network-based and targets WordPress installations with the vulnerable plugin. No hardcoded IPs or domains are present; the user supplies the target URL. The exploit is a functional POC and does not belong to a known exploitation framework.
