A common interpretation is that the meal is the world and the leaven is the gospel which will be preached throughout the world until everyone becomes saved.
However leaven is always a type of sin, evil, false doctrine in the Bible. For example Jesus warned against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees (Matthew 16:6, Matthew 16:12) and the leaven of Herod (Mark 8:15). In 1Corinthians 5:6-8 leaven is defined as malice and evil.
So in this parable Jesus warns against the permeating power of evil working in the kingdom of heaven.

Mark 8:15 - Then He charged them, saying, "Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod." [NKJV]
In the Bible, "leaven" is used both literally (the yeast that makes bread rise) and figuratively (a relatively small force or amount that nonetheless makes a major impact). As used by Jesus in Mark 8:15, "leaven" refers to a "corrupting influence."
