CVE-2011-4462
Plone 4.1.3 and earlier computes hash values for form parameters without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by sending many crafted parameters.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.22%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
