Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions MoinMoin versions prior to 1.8.1

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an AttachFile action to the WikiSandBox component. This can be achieved by exploiting the rename parameter or the drawing parameter, also known as the basename variable, in the action/AttachFile.py component.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.8.1, update to version 1.8.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the AttachFile action in the WikiSandBox component to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the rename and drawing parameters in the affected component until the issue is resolved.
