This repository contains an exploit for CVE-2024-53615, a command injection vulnerability in Karl Ward's files.gallery (files.photo.gallery) versions 0.3.0 through 0.11.0. The vulnerability arises from improper handling of user-supplied file paths when generating video thumbnails using ffmpeg, allowing attackers to inject shell commands via crafted filenames. The exploit consists of a Python script (exploit.py) that automates the attack: it uploads a malicious .mp4 file with a filename containing a shell command (using backticks), then triggers the vulnerable code path by requesting a video preview. The README.md provides technical background, prerequisites, and a manual exploitation example. The exploit requires the target to have file uploads enabled, ffmpeg in the PATH, and PHP's exec() function enabled. The main attack vector is network-based, targeting the file upload and preview functionality of the web application. The repository is structured with a single exploit script and a detailed README, and is operational, providing a working method for remote code execution on vulnerable installations.
