ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Pin control attack

So it's like when you have a toy that has buttons and switches that make it do different things, right? Well, imagine someone else being able to press those buttons and switches without your permission. That's what a pin control attack is. It's when someone gets access to the buttons and switches on something that's supposed to be private, like a credit card or a security keypad, and they use them to do things that they're not supposed to do. It's kind of like hacking into a toy and making it do things that it wasn't meant to do. It's very naughty and can cause a lot of problems for people.
