This repository provides a proof-of-concept (POC) exploit for CVE-2024-9935, a path traversal vulnerability in the PDF Generator Addon for Elementor Page Builder WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.7.5). The repository contains a Bash script ('cve-2024-9935.sh') that automates exploitation by sending a crafted HTTP GET request to a vulnerable WordPress endpoint, leveraging the 'rtw_pdf_file' parameter to traverse directories and access arbitrary files on the server. The script allows the user to either download or view the contents of the targeted file. The README.md provides background on the vulnerability, usage instructions, and example targets. The exploit is unauthenticated and requires only the target URL and the desired file path. The main attack vector is network-based, targeting a specific HTTP endpoint exposed by the vulnerable plugin. The repository is structured simply, with one exploit script and a detailed README.
