Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as Sensitive Information Exposure (CWE-200) within the `enqueue_scripts()` method of `class/dashboard/class-dashboard.php`.

This object contains a full plugin inventory, system environment details (PHP/WordPress versions, server capabilities), and potentially third-party API credentials such as Mailchimp keys.
