**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Plone versions prior to 4.2.3
Plone versions 4.3 before beta 1
**Description**
The issue allows remote authenticated users with certain permissions to bypass the Python sandbox and execute arbitrary Python code via unspecified vectors. This is related to the `gtbn.py` module.
**Recommendations**
For Plone versions prior to 4.2.3, update to version 4.2.3 or later.
For Plone versions 4.3 before beta 1, update to beta 1 or later.
