This repository provides a Python 3 proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2024-42007, a path traversal vulnerability in php-spx versions 0.4.15 and earlier. The exploit script (CVE_2024_42007.py) takes a target URL and an optional file path (defaulting to /etc/passwd), then crafts an HTTP GET request with a specially encoded SPX_UI_URI parameter to traverse directories and read arbitrary files from the server. The script checks for a detection string in the response to confirm successful exploitation. The repository consists of the exploit script and a README.md with usage instructions and a summary of the vulnerability. The exploit is unauthenticated and targets web servers running vulnerable versions of php-spx.
