This repository contains a working exploit for CVE-2025-47550, targeting the Instantio WordPress plugin (versions <= 3.3.16). The exploit is implemented in Python (CVE-2025-47550.py) and demonstrates an authenticated (admin+) arbitrary file upload vulnerability via the 'ins_options_save' action. The exploit script logs into the target WordPress instance as an administrator, extracts a required nonce from the plugin's settings page, and crafts a multipart/form-data POST request to upload a PHP web shell to the server. The shell is placed in a web-accessible directory (/wp-content/uploads/itinerary-fonts/shell.php), allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary system commands via HTTP GET requests. The README.md provides detailed usage instructions, manual exploitation steps, and code snippets from the vulnerable plugin. The exploit requires valid admin credentials and targets a specific plugin endpoint, making it a post-authentication attack. The repository is well-structured, with a single exploit script and comprehensive documentation.
