Apache Struts is an open-source web application framework for developing Java EE web applications. It uses and extends the Java Servlet API to encourage developers to adopt a model-view-controller (MVC) architecture.
A directory traversal vulnerability in Apache Struts allows remote attackers to upload files to arbitrary locations, leading to command execution.
Upgrade to Struts 2.5.33 or 6.3.0.2 or higher.

The vulnerability can only be exploited if a Struts application allows file uploads. This exploit only works if Struts is running on Tomcat.
On success, this exploit creates a sntxp web application which must be manually removed from the target.
