Title:Zope Information Disclosure Vulnerability (GHSA-8xv7-89vj-q48c)
Summary:Zope is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability; through Python's 'format' functionality.
Description:Summary:
Zope is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability
through Python's 'format' functionality.

Vulnerability Insight:
Python's 'format' functionality allows someone controlling the
format string to 'read' objects accessible (recursively) via attribute access and subscription
from accessible objects. Those attribute accesses and subscriptions use Python's full blown
getattr and getitem, not the policy restricted AccessControl variants _getattr_ and _getitem_.
This can lead to critical information disclosure.

Affected Software/OS:
Zope version 4.8.8 and prior and version 5.x through 5.8.3.

Solution:
Update to version 4.8.9, 5.8.4 or later.

CVSS Score:
6.8

CVSS Vector:
