WordPress · Wordpress · CVE-2006-6017
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
WordPress versions prior to 2.0.5
**Description**
The issue allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This occurs when a string representation of a serialized object is not properly stored in a profile. The object can be either malformed or large, triggering automatic unserialization for display, which leads to the denial of service.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 2.0.5, update to version 2.0.5 or later to resolve the issue.
