          This module exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in Apache
          Struts 2. The problem exists on applications running in developer mode,
          where the DebuggingInterceptor allows evaluation and execution of OGNL
          expressions, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java
          code. This module has been tested successfully on Struts 2.3.16, Tomcat
          7 and Ubuntu 10.04.
