python_scripts.py en Plone anterior a 4.2.3 y 4.3 anterior a beta 1 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria) a través de un valor grande, relacionado con formatColumns.
It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly handle the processing of very large values passed to an internal utility function. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL that, when processed, would lead to excessive memory consumption.
