# You will need to download JRuby's Complete.jar file from http://jruby.org/download and configure Burp Extender with its path.
# You will also need to install the WordPress PHP Object Injection WordPress Plugin created by White Fir Design.
# Tip: Remove "PHP object injection has occurred." from the WordPress PHP Object Injection WordPress Plugin's description to not cause a false positive.
