in
constraints.txt
. (#1234) - Use modern Python import features for product enumeration (#1239).
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Define
request["PARENTS"]
before request parameter processing such that request failure subscribers (such as that ofProducts.SiteErrorLog
) can determine the error context for exceptions raised during request parameter processing (see #1235).
- Add support for Python 3.13.
- Drop support for Python 3.7.
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.

paste.filter_app_factory
entry pointcontent_length
. This WSGI middleware component can be used with WSGI servers which do not follow the PEP 3333 recommendation regarding input handling for requests withContent-Length
header. Allows administrators to fix #1171. - Officially support Python 3.12.
- Make sure the object title in the ZMI breadcrumbs is quoted to prevent a cross-site scripting issue.
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Base the inline/attachment logic developed for CVE-2023-42458 on the media type proper (ignore parameters and whitespace and normalize to lowercase) (#1167).
- Allow only some image types to be displayed inline. Force download for
others, especially SVG images. By default we use a list of allowed types.
You can switch a to a list of denied types by setting OS environment variable
OFS_IMAGE_USE_DENYLIST=1
. You can override the allowed list with environment variableALLOWED_INLINE_MIMETYPES
and the disallowed list withDISALLOWED_INLINE_MIMETYPES
. Separate multiple entries by either comma or space. This change only affects direct URL access.<img src="image.svg" />
works the same as before. (CVE-2023-42458) See security advisory. - Tighten down the ZMI frame source logic to only allow site-local sources. Problem reported by Miguel Segovia Gil.

App.Extensions.getObject()
. This got lost in 4.0a6. - Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Add preliminary support for Python 3.12rc1.

mapply
__signature__
aware. This allows to publish methods decorated via a decorator which sets__signature__
on the wrapper to specify the signature to use. For details, see #1134. Note:mapply
still does not support keyword only, var positional and var keyword parameters. - Make Zope's parameters for denial of service protection configurable #1141.
- Update
RestrictedPython

ZPublisher
to handle both a query string and a request body; the request parameters from the query string are made available in the request attributeform
(adict
), the request body can be accessed via the request keysBODY
(abytes
object) orBODYFILE
(a file like object). Fixes #1122. - Support access to the request's
BODY
key for WSGI servers which hand over an unseekable request body (such as e.g.Gunicorn
). Fixes #1125. - Do not break on GET requests that pass a query string and a Content-Type header. For details see #1117.

binary
attribute.Fix encoding handling and
:bytes
converter.See #1094.
Clean out and refactor dependency configuration files.
Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
Support the (non standard)
charset
parameter for content typeapplication/x-www-form-urlencoded
. This is required (e.g. forPlone
) becausejquery
constructs content types of the form`application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
. For details see plone/buildout.coredev#844.
- Only set response header Content-Type as text/html on exception views when the response has content. (#1089)
- Drop support for Python 3.6, it has been in end-of-life status for a while.
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.

- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Set the published default
Content-Type
header totext/plain
if none has been set explicitly to prevent a cross-site scripting attack. Also remove the old behavior of constructing an HTML page for published methods returning a two-item tuple. - Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Script addzopeuser accepts now parameter '-c' or '--configuration'. This allows passing in a custom location for the zope.conf file to use. If not specified, behavior is not altered.
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Change functional testing utilities to support percent encoded and unicode paths (#1058).

- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Start work on Python 3.11 support, which will arrive in a later release.
- Fix cookie path parameter handling:
If the cookie path value contains
%
it is assumed to be fully quoted and used as is; if it contains only characters allowed (unquoted) in an URL path (with the exception of;
), it is used as is; otherwise, it is quoted using Python'surllib.parse.quote
(#1052).
- Update
waitress
to version 2.1.2. - Improvements on find_bad_templates(): check Filesystem Page Templates too and show html tags in web report (#1042)
- Fix version pin specifications for Python 3.6 compatibility. (#1036)
- Quote all components of a redirect URL (not only the path component) (#1027)

- Modify "manage_access" to allow users to switch from the compact view to the complete matrix view when more than 30 roles are defined. (#1039)
- Strip leading
.
in cookie domain names. (#1041)
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Update
waitress
to version 2.1.1 to mitigate a vulnerability in that package. Aswaitress
no longer supports Python 3.6 it is not advised to run Zope on Python 3.6 any longer even though it still supports Python 3.6. Due to this security issue support for Python 3.6 is now officially deprecated. It will be removed with Zope version 5.7. - To run
bin/buildout
inside the Zope project nowzc.buildout >= 2.13.7
orzc.buildout >= 3.0.0b1
is required.

str
representation for non-bytelike response data unless indicated differently by the content type. (#1006) - Use
zc.buildout 3.0rc2
to install Zope to run its tests.
- Audit and fix all hyperlinks in code and documentation
- Change zope.org references to zope.dev due to ongoing domain ownership issues. zope.dev is owned by the Plone Foundation and thus safe from interference. XML/ZCML namespace URLs remain unchanged.
- Remove all links that are completely dead, such as the old zope.org Collectors issue trackers.
- Update all other miscellaneous links to make them work again or remove if the information is gone.
- Improve type guessing for the default WebDAV PUT factory (#997)

- Remove deprecated ulines, utext, utokens, ustring from more code. In the properties form, show a deprecation warning.
- Add function
ZPublisher.utils.fix_properties
. You can call this to fix lines properties to only contain strings, not bytes. It also replaces the deprecated property types ulines, utext, utoken, and ustring with their non-unicode variants. (#987) - Add support for Python 3.10.
- Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Reinstate simple sessioning with
Products.TemporaryFolder
because the underlying issues withtempstorage
have been fixed. (#985) - Update the
AccessControl
version pin to fix a remote code execution issue (see AccessControl security advisory GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf) - Prevent
DeprecationWarnings
from moved imports inAccessControl
- make sure "Manager" users can always modify proxy roles (see Products.PythonScripts#50)

field2lines
is now aligned to the other converters and returns a list of strings instead of a list of bytes. (#962) - Update to newest compatible versions of dependencies.
- Prevent unauthorized traversal through authorized Python modules in TAL expressions
- Facelift the Zope logo. (#973)

OFS
) the deprecated directid
access bygetId
calls. (#903) - Update ZMI dependencies for Font Awesome, jQuery and bootstrap.

- New interface
Products.PageTemplates.interfaces.IZopeAwareEngine
. It can be used as the "provides" of an adapter registration to adapt a nonZope
tales engine to an engine to be used byZope
page templates (#864). Currently, the adaptation is used only when the template is rendered withchameleon
; withzope.pagetemplate
, the engine is used as is - this may change in the future. - Allow (some) builtins as first element of a (TALES) path expression:
in an untrusted context, the builtins from
AccessControl.safe_builtins
are allowed; in a trusted context, all Python builtins are allowed in addition (and take precedence) (zope.tales#23). - Support the
attrs
predefined template variable again (as far aschameleon
allows it) (#860). - Use
Chameleon
(>= 3.7.2) configuration to get better information for errors detected during template execution (#837).
