Description

This module exploits a vulnerability found in Joomla 2.5.x up to 2.5.13, as well as
3.x up to 3.1.4 versions. The vulnerability exists in the Media Manager component,
which comes by default in Joomla, allowing arbitrary file uploads, and results in
arbitrary code execution. The module has been tested successfully on Joomla 2.5.13
and 3.1.4 on Ubuntu 10.04. Note: If public access isn't allowed to the Media
Manager, you will need to supply a valid username and password (Editor role or
higher) in order to work properly.
