The Ocean Modal Window WordPress plugin before 2.3.3 is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution via the modal display logic. These modals can be displayed under user-controlled conditions that Editors and Administrators can set (editpages capability). The conditions are then executed as part of an eval statement executed on every site page. This leads to remote code execution.
