Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-07-23 15:45:55 UTC

A weakness was found in the Zope Enterprise Objects (ZEO) authentication
protocol. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass the authentication
to the Zope Object Database (ZODB).

Comment 2 Tomas Hoger 2009-08-06 13:34:28 UTC

conga (Remote Management System used by Red Hat Cluster Suite) uses zope, but
does not ship ZEO/ZODB component and hence is not affected by this problem.

zope is currently only part of EPEL5 (2.10.7).
