This repository contains a single Python exploit script (CVE-2025-49388.py) targeting CVE-2025-49388, a privilege escalation vulnerability in the Miraculous Core Plugin for WordPress (versions <= 2.0.7). The exploit automates the process of registering a new administrator account on a vulnerable WordPress site by sending a crafted POST request to the /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint, abusing the 'miraculous_user_register_form' action. The script randomizes user data for repeated exploitation, handles custom headers and cookies, and attempts to bypass basic WAF protections. It provides clear output of the credentials if exploitation is successful and can log results to a file. The repository also includes a README with detailed usage instructions, a requirements.txt for dependencies (requests, colorama), and a custom license. The exploit is operational and provides a working attack for privilege escalation, but is not part of a larger framework.
