=========================================================== 
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-423-1          February 20, 2007
moin, moin1.3 vulnerabilities
CVE-2007-0901, CVE-2007-0902
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10

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 5.10:
  moin                                     1.2.4-1ubuntu2.2
  python-moinmoin                          1.3.4-6ubuntu1.5.10

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  python-moinmoin                          1.5.2-1ubuntu2.2

Ubuntu 6.10:
  python-moinmoin                          1.5.3-1ubuntu1.2

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

Details follow:

A flaw was discovered in MoinMoin's debug reporting sanitizer which 
could lead to a cross-site scripting attack.  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.
Only Ubuntu Breezy was vulnerable.  (CVE-2007-0901)

An information leak was discovered in MoinMoin's debug reporting, which 
could expose information about the versions of software running on the 
host system.  MoinMoin administrators can add "show_traceback=0" to
their site configurations to disable debug tracebacks.  (CVE-2007-0902)
