CVE-2011-10033 describes a critical eval injection vulnerability in the defunct WordPress plugin "is-human" versions <= 1.4.2. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by manipulating the 'type' parameter when 'action' is set to 'log-reset' in /is-human/engine.php. This allows for arbitrary PHP and OS command execution, leading to full webserver compromise, data exfiltration, and site takeover. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.3 (CRITICAL) due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While the plugin is no longer available, this vulnerability was actively exploited in the wild in March 2012, despite a lack of public exploit code or significant community discussion.
