On behalf of Zope developer community I am pleased to announce the =
releases of Zope 4.8.1 and 5.5.1.

These bugfix releases attempt to address an important security issue in =
the waitress WSGI server software that Zope uses as default WSGI server =
component. Unfortunately the fixed waitress version 2.1.1 has only been =
released for Python versions 3.7 and higher.

Zope 4.8.1 and 5.5.1 now require the fixed waitress package IF it is =
running on Python 3.7 or higher. Previous Python versions do not have =
the security fix and we as Zope maintainers cannot provide a fixed =
waitress release for deployments on Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6.

Even though Zope 4 still supports Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6 and Zope 5 =
still supports Python 3.6 we strongly advise you to either upgrade your =
Zope installation to at least Python 3.7, or switch to a different WSGI =
server. See =
https://zope.readthedocs.io/en/latest/operation.html#recommended-wsgi-serv=
ers for some choices.

For the full list of changes see the change logs at =
https://zope.readthedocs.io/en/4.x/changes.html#id1 and =
https://zope.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changes.html#id1.

Installation instructions can be found at =
https://zope.readthedocs.io/en/4.x/INSTALL.html and =
https://zope.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL.html.
