CVE-2012-6661: Moderate severity vulnerability that affects Plone and Zope2
(updated )
Zope, as used in Plone before beta 1, does not reseed the pseudo-random number generator (PRNG), which makes it easier for remote attackers to guess the value via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this issue was SPLIT from CVE-2012-5508 due to different vulnerability types (ADT2).
