Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-10-10 14:23:46 UTC

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2011-4030 to
the following vulnerability:

The CMFEditions component 2.x in Plone 4.0.x through 4.0.9, 4.1, and
4.2 through 4.2a2 does not prevent the KwAsAttributes classes from
being publishable, which allows remote attackers to access sub-objects
via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-3587.
