Summary

The Countdown, Coming Soon, Maintenance – Countdown & Clock plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.9.1 via the createCdObj function.

This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in some cases.
