Debian 5.0 Lenny DSA-1791-1 Critical: Fix for Moin XSS Vulnerability

It was discovered that the AttachFile action in moin, a python clone of
WikiWiki, is prone to cross-site scripting attacks when renaming
attachements or performing other sub-actions.


For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.7.1-3+lenny2.

The oldstable distribution (etch) is not vulnerable.

For the testing (squeeze) distribution and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem will be fixed soon.


We recommend that you upgrade your moin packages.
