What happened
Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection in LeadSnap versions 1.25 and earlier, where untrusted input is unserialized into PHP objects.
Why it is dangerous: Successful exploitation can let an attacker take over the WordPress site, read or change its data, and install further malware, which puts every site running the plugin at serious risk.
