Product description:

Plone is a ready-to-run content management system built on the powerful,
and free, Zope application server. Plone is easy to set up, extremely
flexible, and provides you with a system for managing web content that
is ideal for project groups, communities, web sites, extranets and

Summary of issues identified:

- - CSRF (Cross-site Request Forgeries)
- - Credentials (username and password) stored in cookies
- - Lack of authentication state on the server side

changed or user logs out!)
