      'Description'    => %q{
        This module exploits a remote code execution vulnerability in the explicit render
        method when leveraging user parameters.
        This module has been tested across multiple versions of Ruby on Rails.
        The technique used by this module requires the specified
        endpoint to be using dynamic render paths, such as the following example:
 
        def show
          render params[:id]
        end
 
        Also, the vulnerable target will need a POST endpoint for the TempFile upload, this
        can literally be any endpoint. This module doesnt use the log inclusion method of
        exploitation due to it not being universal enough. Instead, a new code injection
        technique was found and used whereby an attacker can upload temporary image files
        against any POST endpoint and use them for the inclusion attack. Finally, you only
        get one shot at this if you are testing with the builtin rails server, use caution.
