NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream zope2.13 package and not the zope2.13 package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Zope before 2.13.19, as used in Plone before 4.2.3 and 4.3 before beta 1, does not reseed the pseudo-random number generator (PRNG), which makes it easier for remote attackers to guess the value via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this issue was SPLIT from CVE-2012-5508 due to different vulnerability types (ADT2).
