CMF 1.6.4 Released

The CMF developer community is hereby announcing the release release of version 1.6.4 of the Zope Content Managment Framework (CMF). This is a bugfix release, and is a recommended upgrade for users running an earlier release of the CMF in the 1.6.x line.

What is the CMF?

The Zope Content Management Framework provides a set of services and content objects useful for building highly dynamic, content-oriented portal sites. The CMF provides the foundation for popular software packages such as Plone. It is intended to be easily customizable, in terms of both the types of content used and the policies and services it provides.

Where do I get it?

Please file bug reports, feature requests or suggestions in the CMF bug collector at http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF.

What has changed since the last release?

There were no changes from CMF 1.6.4-beta. Important changes in that release included:

  • Switched to using GenericSetup 1.2 final release (from 1.2beta).
  • Used the property API to get the member specific skin, because direct attribute access won't work with PAS based membership. (http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/5904)
  • Add POST-only protections to security critical methods (see http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0240).
