Hi J=C3=BCrgen,

Zope and Plone are still two different projects. The Plone developers =
published a hotfix product that fixes everything they believe needed to =
be fixed. I looked at items that apply to plain Zope and made the =
required changes in Zope.

So anyone using plain Zope can install the latest update and they are =
safe. As a plain Zope developer I cannot comment on or make =
recommendations regarding a Plone hotfix, and Zope itself will never =
require a Plone add-on or hotfix. I don=E2=80=99t have any control over =
how the Plone release managers communicate these fixes, either. People =
who do not use Plone are advised to stick to published Zope updates.

install PloneHotfix20210518 first, see =
https://plone.org/security/hotfix/20210518. The security changes in Zope =
break some Plone add-ons that relied on the old insecure traversal =
behavior. PloneHotfix20210518 ensures support for those Plone add-ons.
