          This module exploits a default Vagrant synced folder (shared folder)
          to append a Ruby payload to the Vagrant project Vagrantfile config file.

          By default, unless a Vagrant project explicitly disables shared folders,
          Vagrant mounts the project directory on the host as a writable 'vagrant'
          directory on the guest virtual machine. This directory includes the
          project Vagrantfile configuration file.

          Ruby code within the Vagrantfile is loaded and executed when a user
          runs any vagrant command from the project directory on the host,
          leading to execution of Ruby code on the host.
