DESCRIPTION:
A weakness has been reported in DotNetNuke, which may lead to
exposure of sensitive information.

The weakness is caused due to the logging provider not being
available while handling exceptions if a database becomes
unavailable. This can lead to the exposure of certain sensitive
information e.g. the database name or the user name.

The weakness is reported in versions prior to 5.6.0.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 5.6.0.
