    Information Exposure

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. When the format functionality of Python is utilized, an individual controlling the format string can access objects via attribute access and subscription from accessible objects. This access uses Python's getattr and getitem, not the policy restricted AccessControl variants _getattr_ and _getitem_. This could potentially lead to critical information disclosure.

    How to fix Information Exposure?

    Upgrade AccessControl to version 4.4, 6.2 or higher.

    Remote Code Execution (RCE)

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE). The package allows access to Python's string module, which then allows access to the Formatter class that can be overridden in a way that allows access to further unsafe Python libraries.

    NOTE: This only applies to Python 3. Furthermore, only websites that allow untrusted users to edit Script (Python) are vulnerable.

    How to fix Remote Code Execution (RCE)?

    Upgrade AccessControl to version 5.2, 4.3 or higher.
