How odd.  Just did the test myself and it generates a 70 line  
traceback in the event log.  I fail to see how this could possibly  
obfuscate other attacks... unless you were completely clueless about  
tracebacks.  Steve is too kind.  This claim is just ridiculous.

Hi there,

just read this article (in German) about a new attack pattern called
HTTP parameter polution and they mention Plone:

Anyone heard of this?


  
http://seclists.org/bugtraq/2009/May/0165.html seems to be a good
