Description

This module exploits a vulnerability found on V-CMS's inline image upload feature.
The problem is due to the inline_image_upload.php file not checking the file type
before saving it on the web server. This allows any malicious user to upload a
script (such as PHP) without authentication, and then execute it with a GET request.

The issue is fixed in 1.1 by checking the extension name. By default, 1.1 only
allows jpg, jpeg, png, gif, bmp, but it is still possible to upload a PHP file as
one of those extension names, which may still be leveraged in an attack.
