## Affected

- Unknown uncanny-automator-pro: from 7.3.0.5, fixed in 7.3.0.6

## Description

The uncanny-automator-pro WordPress plugin before 7.3.0.6 was distributed with malicious code after the vendor's uncanny-automator-pro WordPress plugin before 7.3.0.6 update/distribution infrastructure was compromised; the injected backdoor grants unauthenticated attackers an administrator session on affected sites and beacons the site's secret keys and administrator details to attacker-controlled servers.
