Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'plone' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で plone を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade plone to 3da710a2cd68587f0bf34f2e7ea1167d6eeee087, 4.0a1, 4.1a1, 4.2a1, 4.3a1, 4.3.7, 5.0rc2

    ステージング環境で 3da710a2cd68587f0bf34f2e7ea1167d6eeee087, 4.0a1, 4.1a1, 4.2a1, 4.3a1, 4.3.7, 5.0rc2 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
