"The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
dla-2779 advisory.

  - In MediaWiki before 1.31.15, 1.32.x through 1.35.x before 1.35.3, and 1.36.x before 1.36.1, bots have
    certain unintended API access. When a bot account has a sitewide block applied, it is able to still
    purge pages through the MediaWiki Action API (which a sitewide block should have prevented).
    (CVE-2021-35197)

  - MediaWiki before 1.36.2 allows XSS. Month related MediaWiki messages are not escaped before being used on
    the Special:Search results page. (CVE-2021-41798)

  - MediaWiki before 1.36.2 allows a denial of service (resource consumption because of lengthy query
    processing time). ApiQueryBacklinks (action=query&list;=backlinks) can cause a full table scan.
    (CVE-2021-41799)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
