Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Plugin Groups plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.0.6

Description The issue is related to a missing capability check on the admin init() function, which allows unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's settings. This can lead to a denial of service due to misconfiguration.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.0.6, update to a version higher than 2.0.6 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the admin init() function until a patch is available. Restrict access to the plugin's settings to minimize the risk of exploitation.
