Zope AccessControl provides a general security framework for use in Zope. Prior to 7.4, applications that allow untrusted users to create and execute AccessControl-controlled Python code do not safely guard str.format and str.format_map when those methods are reached through a str subclass. In both ImplPython.py and cAccessControl.c, Python formatting can recursively access attributes and subscriptions using unrestricted getattr and getitem behavior instead of the policy-restricted getattr and getitem operations. A controlled format string can therefore disclose objects reachable from values available to the formatting operation. This issue is fixed in version 7.4.

GHSA-pq59-9fq7-m886 — Zope AccessControl vulnerable to information disclosure through Python string `format` and `format_map` functions

Affected: PyPI: AccessControl

### Impact Python's string `format` functionality allows someone controlling the format string to "read" objects accessible (recursively) via attribute access and subscription from accessible objects. Those attribute accesses and subscriptions use Python's full blown `getattr` and `getitem`, not the policy restricted `AccessControl` variants `_getattr_` and `_getitem_`. This can lead to critical information disclosure.

The `AccessControl` package already guards against direct access to the formatting functions on string instances, but these mitigations did not cover subclasses of `str`.

Affected are all users who allow untrusted users to create AccessControl controlled Python code and execute it.

### Patches A fix was published with version 7.4.

### Workarounds There is no workaround.
