Products.CMFPlone fixed: 4.3.7 
pip install Products.CMFPlone>=4.3.7
Products.CMFPlone fixed: 5.0rc2 
pip install Products.CMFPlone>=5.0rc2
Plone fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install Plone>=Latest secure release
Plone fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install Plone>=Latest secure release
Plone fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install Plone>=Latest secure release
Plone fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install Plone>=Latest secure release
Plone fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install Plone>=Latest secure release
Plone fixed: Latest secure release 
pip install Plone>=Latest secure release
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

pip show Products.CMFPlone

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2015-7315, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show Products.CMFPlone

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Products.CMFPlone in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 4.3.7), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show Products.CMFPlone command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.
