This Metasploit module exploits a PHP code injection vulnerability DataLife Engine 9.7. The vulnerability exists in preview.php, due to an insecure usage of preg_replace() with the e modifier, which allows to inject arbitrary php code, when the template in use contains a [catlist] or [not-catlist] tag.
