NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream moin package and not the moin package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

MoinMoin 1.7.x before 1.7.3 and 1.8.x before 1.8.3 checks parent ACLs in certain inappropriate circumstances during processing of hierarchical ACLs, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by requesting an item, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-6603.
