CVE-2008-6603: MoinMoin Access Restrictions Bypassed due to improper ACL enforcement
(updated )
MoinMoin 1.6.2 and 1.7 does not properly enforce ACL checks when acl_hierarchic is set to True, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-1937.
