This repository provides an automated Bash script (jbwper.sh) to exploit CVE-2022-4061, a vulnerability in JobBoardWP < 1.2.2 for WordPress that allows unauthenticated arbitrary file upload. The exploit works by sending crafted HTTP requests to the vulnerable endpoint (/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=jb-upload-company-logo) to upload a PHP webshell (tifa.php) to the server. The script supports mass exploitation by reading a list of target URLs from a file (list.txt) and using GNU Parallel for concurrent execution. Results are logged in vuln.txt (successful uploads) and notvuln.txt (failed or non-vulnerable targets). The main exploit capability is remote code execution via the uploaded webshell. The repository is structured with a README for usage instructions, the main exploit script, and sample input/output files.
