TsungWei, with respect but you are telling barely nonsense. The
mentioned issue only affected
sites where managers gave ZMI access to untrusted users. So this issue
is of limited importance.
In addition it has been fixed within less than one day (compare this to
other systems).
In addition: Zope is an application server, not a CMS. Also: compare the
number of critical
bugs within Zope to other systems.

ZOPE IS VERY SECURE.

So please stop with such postings spreading FUD and containing improper
information.
