Detail

Last week a Zope (security advisory was released which indicated Erik Enge found a problem in the way Zope calculates roles. In some situations Zope checked the wrong folder hierarchy which could cause it to grant local roles when it should not. In other words: users with privileges in one folder could gain privileges in another folder.

This has been fixed in version 2.1.6-5.3 by including the 2000-12-15 hotfix, and we recommend that you upgrade your zope package immediately.

Id Description
6284 Zope Local Role Computation Error Privilege Escalation

Zope contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. In some situations the computation was not climbing the correct hierarchy of folders, granting local roles inappropriately. Exploitation of this issue could grant a local user with privileges in one folder the same privileges specified in another folder. This flaw may lead to a loss of confidentiality and integrity.
