[Zope] HTTP PUT

Hi

I need confirmation (mainly for some peace of mind, but also because  
reading google results, all sorts of questions from in my head).

I have a user messing with a site using HTTP PUT to upload files. The  
user has access privileges to use a simple CMS (although for the time  
being now, they're revoked). Will switching off the permission for  
"WebDAV access" prevent any successful PUT or do we need to take  
further actions?

We also allow FTP access to certain directories. Can this be abused  
to upload files elsewhere?

Here's a log entry:

harry/home/Home Page/page/add_block?block=1/ter_restrnt.jpg HTTP
