The MediaWiki development team reports:
A possible HTML/XSS injection vector in the API
pretty-printing mode has been found and fixed.
The vulnerability may be worked around in an unfixed version
by simply disabling the API interface if it is not in use, by
adding this to LocalSettings.php:
$wgEnableAPI = false;
(This is the default setting in 1.8.x.)
