Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the antispam feature (security/antispam.py) in MoinMoin 1.7 and 1.8.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via crafted, disallowed content.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in action/AttachFile.py in MoinMoin before 1.8.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an AttachFile action to the WikiSandBox component with (1) the rename parameter or (2) the drawing parameter (aka the basename variable).
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in macro/AdvancedSearch.py in moin (and MoinMoin) 1.6.3 and 1.7.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
The user form processing (userform.py) in MoinMoin before 1.6.3, when using ACLs or a non-empty superusers list, does not properly manage users, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in action/AttachFile.py in MoinMoin 1.8.2 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) an AttachFile sub-action in the errormsg function or (2) multiple vectors related to package file errors in the uploadform function, different vectors than CVE-2009-0260.
MoinMoin 1.2.2 and earlier could allow a remote attacker to gain elevated privileges, caused by an undisclosed Access Control List (ACL) vulnerability in the PageEditor.
Unknown vulnerability in MoinMoin 1.2.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to gain unauthorized access to administrator functions such as (1) revert and (2) delete.
MoinMoin 1.2.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to gain privileges by creating a user with the same name as an existing group that has higher privileges.
MoinMoin before 20070507 does not properly enforce ACLs for calendars and includes, which allows remote attackers to read certain pages via unspecified vectors.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in MoinMoin 1.5.7 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the do parameter in an AttachFile action, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-0857. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.
An information leak was discovered in MoinMoin's debug reporting version 1.5.7, which could expose information about the versions of software running on the host system. MoinMoin administrators can add "showtraceback=0" to their site configurations to disable debug tracebacks.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Info pages in MoinMoin 1.5.7 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) hitcounts and (2) general parameters, different vectors than CVE-2007-0857. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in MoinMoin before 1.5.7 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the page info, or the page name in a (2) AttachFile, (3) RenamePage, or (4) LocalSiteMap action.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in MoinMoin 1.5.8 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) certain input processed by formatter/textgedit.py (aka the gui editor formatter); (2) a page name, which triggers an injection in PageEditor.py when the page is successfully deleted by a victim in a DeletePage action; or (3) the destination page name for a RenamePage action, which triggers an injection in PageEditor.py when a victim's rename attempt fails because of a duplicate name. NOTE: the AttachFile XSS issue is already covered by CVE-2008-0781, and the login XSS issue is already covered by CVE-2008-0780. The issue has been fixed on d0152eeb4499 and 4ede07e792dd.
macroGetval in wikimacro.py in MoinMoin 1.5.8 and earlier does not properly enforce ACLs, which allows remote attackers to read protected pages.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MoinMoin 1.5.x through 1.5.8 and 1.6.x before 1.6.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the login action.
Description of problem:
The following fix was commited to 1.5 branch in upstream repository: http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.5/rev/db212dfc58ef
"fix XSS issues in AttachFile action"
Directory traversal vulnerability in MoinMoin 1.5.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the MOINID user ID in a cookie for a userform action. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged for PHP code execution via the quicklinks parameter.
Jamie Strandboge of the Ubuntu Security Team reported: [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/moin/+bug/538022
a cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw, present in the Moin's Despam action module, providing possibility mass to revert changes done by some specific author / bot. Unprivileged Moin user could provide a specially-crafted HTML page and trick the privileged user into running the Despam action on it, leading to disclosure of sensitive information, denial of 'revert changes service' or potentially, to execution of arbitrary JavaScript code with the privileges of the privileged Moin user.
