* CVE-2012-5505 (zope.traversing: atat.py) http://plone.org/products/plone/security/advisories/20121106/21

That "fix" is also disputed: hiding the "default" view from the '@@' name does not actually improve security at all. There is a Launchpad bug where it is being debated (#1079225), but that bug is still in "Private Security" mode. The correct fix is to change the code of the multi-adapter to barf if published via a URL.

Any idea when this patch will be released? Thanks.

Is there any news on that issue?

I still believe the report is in error: we cannot hide default (unnamed) views simply because an application might register one in error. Any views which wants not to be called via URLs needs to handle that directly: registering a multiadapter for (IThing, None) *is* registering a view.
