# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2015-7315

Advisory: Plone unauthorized member addition vulnerability
IDs: CVE-2015-7315, GHSA-984m-rj28-8c6x
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2015-7315 (revision 2, source checked 25 Oct 2026, 01:56 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 8.2)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: products-cmfplone 5.0rc2, 4.3.7. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- PyPI products-cmfplone: affected >= 3.3.0, < 4.3.7; >= 5.0a1, < 5.0rc2; fixed in 4.3.7, 5.0rc2
- PyPI plone: affected >= 3.3, <= 3.3.6; >= 4.0a1, <= 4.0.10; >= 4.1a1, <= 4.1.6; >= 4.2a1, <= 4.2.7; >= 4.3a1, <= 4.3.6

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `python -m pip show products-cmfplone`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.
- `python -m pip show plone`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on products-cmfplone, plone.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
