Something like this should work (taken from zopewiki.org):

In [10]?: from AccessControl?.SecurityManagement? import 
newSecurityManager, getSecurityManager
In [11]?: user = app.acl_users.getUser('jean').__of__(app.portal.acl_users)
In [12]?: newSecurityManager(None, user)
In [13]?: getSecurityManager().getUser() # just to verify it.
Out[13]?: jean
In [14]?: app.fab.materials.invokeFactory('Material', 'test11')
In [15]?: mat = getattr(app.fab.materials, 'test11')
In [16]?: mat
Out[16]?: <Material at /fab/materials/test11>
