The remote host is missing an update for the 'moin' package(s) announced via the USN-925-1 advisory. It was discovered that MoinMoin did not properly sanitize its input when processing Despam actions, resulting in cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. If a privileged wiki user were tricked into performing the Despam action on a page with a crafted title, a remote attacker could exploit this to execute JavaScript code. It was discovered that the TextCha protection in MoinMoin could be bypassed by submitting a crafted form request. This issue only affected Ubuntu 8.10
