Description

This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in
Apache Struts versions handle unicode characters in OGNL extensive expressions passed to the web server.

By sending a specially crafted request to the Struts application it is possible to
bypass the "#" restriction on ParameterInterceptors by using OGNL context variables.
Bypassing this restriction allows for the execution of arbitrary Java code.
