Serious security problem with Zope 2
by Jim Fulton 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

We have recently discovered that there are (still) very serious security problems with the integration of reStructured Text (docutils) into Zope 2. We have prepared a hot fix for this problem: http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/Hotfix-2006-07-05/Hotfix-20060705/ See: http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/Hotfix-2006-07-05/Hotfix-20060705/ README.txt for installation instructions. It is important to install this hotfix as soon as possible. This fix will disable the reStructuredText 'raw' directive. Much thanks goes to Tres Seaver for analyzing the problem and developing the hotfix! Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!

linktally 0.1.0: Keep track of your most popular CMS content
by Martijn Pieters 04 Jul '06

04 Jul '06

Pareto is happy to announce the first preview release of linktally, version 0.1.0: http://plone.org/products/linktally What is linktally ----------------- Zope, and most CMS-es in fact, is not optimized to write on every page access. This makes page counters impractical. Add a squid cache and most visits won't even be seen by your CMS. Instead, linktally utilizes your Squid, Apache or Zope log file to periodically tally content accesses, storing these in a sqlite3 database. A separate, CMS-specific tool then provides rankings (by type if need be) for the past week, month and year. This initial release includes a CMF tool to provide rankings by past week, month, or year, for all tracked content or for specific types only. We've deployed this tool in a few Plone sites already. Note that this is an initial preview alpha release, and is still missing some features. In the future it should support more than just Apache Combined format, for example. Plugins for other CMS-es like Silva, CPS or even non-python systems are also on the TODO list. Martijn Pieters
