{"id":"PYSEC-2026-672","summary":"MoinMoin Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities","details":"Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in MoinMoin 1.5.8 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) certain input processed by `formatter/text_gedit.py` (aka the gui editor formatter); (2) a page name, which triggers an injection in PageEditor.py when the page is successfully deleted by a victim in a DeletePage action; or (3) the destination page name for a RenamePage action, which triggers an injection in PageEditor.py when a victim's rename attempt fails because of a duplicate name.  NOTE: the AttachFile XSS issue is already covered by CVE-2008-0781, and the login XSS issue is already covered by CVE-2008-0780.\nThe issue has been fixed on [d0152eeb4499](http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.5/rev/d0152eeb4499) and [4ede07e792dd](http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.5/rev/4ede07e792dd).","aliases":["CVE-2008-1098","GHSA-8fj9-pj4p-4vq7"],"modified":"2026-07-06T08:00:44.522741596Z","published":"2026-07-02T14:13:20.698066Z","references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2008-1098"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/41037"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://usn.ubuntu.com/716-1"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-package-announce/2008-April/msg00510.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-package-announce/2008-April/msg00538.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.5/rev/4ede07e792dd"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.5/rev/d0152eeb4499"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://moinmo.in/SecurityFixes"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/29262"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/29444"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/30031"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/33755"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1514"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200803-27.xml"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/28173"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://pypi.org/project/moin"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-8fj9-pj4p-4vq7"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"moin","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/moin"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"1.5.8"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/blob/main/vulns/moin/PYSEC-2026-672.yaml"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
