In some exploitation scenarios such as local privilege escalation, command execution, write-only attacks, SQL Injections, etc, it is very likely that you have to upload one or more malicious files in order to gain control of the target machine.

Metasploit offers a way to manage these soon-to-be-removed files, and it's simple to use.
