CVE-2007-0539

CVSS v2.0

7.8

Alta

VetorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WordPress versions prior to 2.1
Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, consuming bandwidth or threads, by exploiting the wp remote fopen function through pingback service calls. This is achieved by using a source URI that corresponds to a large file, triggering a long download session without any timeout constraint.
Recommendations For versions prior to 2.1, consider updating to a version that includes a fix for this issue, as the wp remote fopen function's behavior in these versions can lead to denial of service. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting or disabling the pingback service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
