Disclaimer

I haven't discovered this vulnerability & neither taking any credits of this CVE. I have only created the exploit after analyzing the description available on various blogs like wordfence, seravo with the motto to let the readers understand how to create POC by just analyzing the description of the vulnerability.
I am not responsible for any damage caused to an organization using this exploit & I would advice the readers not to exploit this vulnerability without written consent from the organization as it may expose the organization open to attacks by other hackers.
