CVE-2013-4196: Plone is vulnerable to information exposure via the object manager implementation

May 17, 2022 (updated October 18, 2024)

The object manager implementation (objectmanager.py) in Plone 2.1 through 4.1, 4.2.x through 4.2.5, and 4.3.x through 4.3.1 does not properly restrict access to internal methods, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted request.
