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.

_macro_Getval in wikimacro.py in MoinMoin 1.5.8 and earlier does not properly enforce ACLs, which allows remote attackers to read protected pages.
