 Hi there,

 recently MJ opened a security related bug and disclosed it to the
 public at https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope2/+bug/578326.

 In short Zope 2 never supported the permission attribute on ZCML
 browser:view declarations. It seems some people might have specified
 this attribute and assumed it would do something.

 I have added a warning message to Zope 2 (trunk + 2.12 branch) which
 warns about those cases. This is similar to how we handle other such
 cases like the unsupported require set_schema=.. / and require
 set_attributes=... / on class directives.

 But it turns out that Zope 2 itself is using this in one place, that
 looks like it ought to have a security declaration. The
 Products.Five.adding.ContentAdding class registered as an add view
 (+) has no working security declarations I can see, and only has
 such a non-functioning permission=zope2.ViewManagementScreens set.
 I'm not familiar enough with the add view concept to understand what
 this is doing. It also looks like both CMF and Plone use similar
 registrations for their add views.

 Ideally I'd love to add support for the permission attribute, as
 clearly people have been using it. But if there's nobody who can
 figure out how to do that, I'd at least like to clarify the add view
 case.

Fixed in r114488 (2.12 branch) and r114490 (trunk). I don't think I'm
allowed to close the issue on Launchpad, but it should be fine now.

Cheers,
Martin

 Why can't we just copy the relevant code from the browser:page directive?

 The ViewSecurityGrokker in
 http://svn.zope.org/five.grok/trunk/src/five/grok/meta.py?rev=112163view=auto
 may be useful reading too. It should be doing the same thing, no?

It seems you have some idea about this code, so are you volunteering
to implement this?

Since we are dealing with a disclosed real security vulnerability
here, I need to have some resolution by next Tuesday. Either that is
disabling the functionality or protecting it with some security.

Possibly. I have client work that has to take priority right now.

I'd appreciate it if someone who's getting more than four hours of
sleep a night at the moment takes a stab. I'm happy to review/assist.

Hi.

As a reminder: If nobody is able to help with this, I'll disable the
insecure view registration in Zope2 and release new versions Tuesday
13th.

From my understanding of the code, Zope 2 itself is not vulnerable, as
there's no registrations for IFactory utilities included. But in any
system that has such registrations, anonymous users should be able to
create any such content item in any location.

I'm not sure about this affects only views. I have just checked a Zope  
2.10 based site (with CMF) where pages are protected. They work as  
expected. More recent Zope 2.12 sites do not apply the same protection.

For an example try /members_manage_form on a Zope 2.12.4 + CMF 2.1 site.  
ie. the error may not be in the way declarations are handled but in the  
exception handling.
