Forgetting plone (which I know nothing about), dictionaries definitely do NOT need security assertions (like lists, strings, integers and all basic types). Are you SURE it's a dictionary? Most likely it just LOOKS like one when represented as a string. Try: <div tal:content="python:repr(myFeed)"> To see exactly what it is ... It might be an instance of some object that has a __str__ that makes it look like a dictionary?

I have the exact same problem and have been unable to find a solution anywhere. Were you ever able to resolve this? sfmcfar wrote:
I apologize for cross-posting from the plone newsgroup. but after posting this I realized that this was more of a Zope issue than a Plone one. I wish I could cut-and-paste (development is on the other side of a firewall), so instead I'll be as clear as I can.
Anyway, I have a Plone product that contains a method called getFeedSequence() that returns the result (a dictionary) from feedparser.parse() (Feedparser is the generic RSS/Atom parser).
In my template, I can do:
<div tal:define="myFeed python:getFeedSequence()"> <div tal:content="python:myFeed">
And see the string representation of the dictionary with no problem. But if I try and access a member of the sequence:
<div tal:define="myFeed python:getFeedSequence()"> <div tal:content="python:myFeed['feed']['title']">
VerboseSecurity reports "The container has no security assertions. Access to None of {[the entire RSS dictionary goes here]} denied."
How can I have permission to access the entire sequence but not a portion of it? it appears to me that the sequence is fairly straightforward - a few nested dictionaries, but that's it. Does this
make any sense?
Thanks,
Stan
