MoinMoin is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it
fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input data.

An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code
in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected
site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication
credentials and launch other attacks.

MoinMoin 1.9.2 and prior are vulnerable.
