Ubuntu Security Notice USN-458-1               May 07, 2007
moin vulnerabilities
CVE-2007-2423
==========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10
Ubuntu 7.04

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

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

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  python2.4-moinmoin                       1.5.2-1ubuntu2.3

Ubuntu 6.10:
  python2.4-moinmoin                       1.5.3-1ubuntu1.3

Ubuntu 7.04:
  python-moinmoin                          1.5.3-1.1ubuntu3.1

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

Details follow:

A flaw was discovered in MoinMoin's error reporting when using the 
AttachFile action.  By tricking a user into viewing a crafted MoinMoin 
URL, an attacker could execute arbitrary JavaScript as the current 
MoinMoin user, possibly exposing the user's authentication information 
for the domain where MoinMoin was hosted. (CVE-2007-2423)

Flaws were discovered in MoinMoin's ACL handling for calendars and 
includes.  Unauthorized users would be able to read pages that would 
otherwise be unavailable to them.
