A flaw was discovered in MoinMoin’s page name sanitizer which could lead to a cross-site scripting attack. By tricking a user into viewing a crafted MoinMoin page, 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.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
