Package: zope-cmfplone
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

I don't know very much about Plone and I didn't investigate too deeply
as Sarge is not affected, but I suppose this needs to be fixed for Etch:

http://plone.org/about/security/advisories/cve-2006-4249/

| PlonePAS-using Plone releases (Plone 2.5 and Plone 2.5.1)
| has a potential vulnerability that allows a user to
| masquerade as a group. Please update your sites.

Applying the hotfix is probably preferable to upgrading to 2.5.2.

Cheers,
        Moritz
