Gravity Forms for WordPress versions before 2.9.23.1 insufficiently restrict dangerous file types submitted through its chunked-upload functionality. An attacker can upload a PHP file to an affected site and execute it remotely if they can discover or enumerate the resulting upload path.

Repository contains a single Python exploit script and a minimal README. The main file, CVE-2025-13407.py, is a standalone interactive exploit targeting Gravity Forms unauthenticated arbitrary file upload/RCE (claimed as CVE-2025-13407) for versions below 2.9.23.1. The script uses requests and BeautifulSoup to retrieve a target page, parse HTML, locate a Gravity Forms multi-file upload widget via the '.gform_fileupload_multifile' selector, derive form/field identifiers, and drive the upload workflow. Based on the visible code and README, its purpose is not merely detection: it attempts to upload a PHP payload that functions as a mini uploader, enabling follow-on file uploads to the compromised host. The script supports both single-target and multi-target scanning, includes threading for bulk exploitation, disables TLS verification warnings, and logs successful compromises to pwned.txt. The repository is small, operational, and focused on exploitation rather than research or detection.
