"The remote web server uses a version of Zope which is older than
version 2.3.3.  In such versions, any user can visit a ZClass
declaration and change the ZClass permission mappings for methods and
other objects defined within the ZClass, possibly allowing for
unauthorized access within the Zope instance.

*** the hotfix has already been applied, this might be a false positive" );
