Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Movable Type versions prior to 5.2.6

Description The issue arises from the incorrect usage of the Storable::thaw function, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through the comment state parameter. This enables attackers to potentially gain control over the system.

Recommendations For versions prior to 5.2.6, update to version 5.2.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the comment state parameter until a patch is available.
