Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.67277
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-925-1 (moin)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to moin
announced via advisory USN-925-1.

Details follow:

It was discovered that MoinMoin did not properly sanitize its input when
processing Despam actions, resulting in cross-site scripting (XSS)
vulnerabilities. If a privileged wiki user were tricked into performing
the Despam action on a page with a crafted title, a remote attacker could
exploit this to execute JavaScript code. (CVE-2010-0828)

It was discovered that the TextCha protection in MoinMoin could be bypassed
by submitting a crafted form request. This issue only affected Ubuntu 8.10.
(CVE-2010-1238)

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
python2.4-moinmoin 1.5.2-1ubuntu2.6

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
python-moinmoin 1.5.8-5.1ubuntu2.4

Ubuntu 8.10:
python-moinmoin 1.7.1-1ubuntu1.5

Ubuntu 9.04:
python-moinmoin 1.8.2-2ubuntu2.3

Ubuntu 9.10:
python-moinmoin 1.8.4-1ubuntu1.2

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.
