XSS2SHELL is a piece of software which allows you to get instant php code execution on WordPress and Joomla! installations via XSS vulnerabilities. The tool is designed to operate as follows:

  1. User generates his javascript payload by using the python builder
  2. User uploads the payload and injects it into an existing XSS vuln
  3. Payload is triggerd by a WP/Joomla! admin, and the attacker's php is evaled

Some notes:

  1. The WordPress payload is always saved to "/wp-content/plugins/hello.php"
  2. The Joomla! payload is always saved to "/administrator/templates/isis/pay.php"
