plone.rest allows users to use HTTP verbs such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc. in Plone. Starting in the 2.x branch and prior to versions 2.0.1 and 3.0.1, when the ++api++
traverser is accidentally used multiple times in a url, handling it takes increasingly longer, making the server less responsive. Patches are available in plone.rest
2.0.1 and 3.0.1. Series 1.x is not affected. As a workaround, one may redirect /++api++/++api++
to /++api++
in one's frontend web server (nginx, Apache).
