The Confection WordPress Cable WordPress plugin from 0.4.0 to 0.4.7 does not perform any capability or nonce checks before saving its settings and writing one of them, unmodified, into a standalone PHP file that it then serves, allowing unauthenticated users to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server.
