- (bug 66776, bug 71478) SECURITY: User PleaseStand
reported a way to inject code into API clients that used
format=php to process pages that underwent flash policy
mangling. This was fixed along with improving how the
mangling was done for format=json, and allowing sites to
disable the mangling using $wgMangleFlashPolicy.
- (bug 70901) SECURITY: User Jackmcbarn reported that
the ability to update the content model for a page
could allow an unprivileged attacker to edit another
user's common.js under certain circumstances. The user
right 'editcontentmodel' was added, and is needed to
change a revision's content model.
- (bug 71111) SECURITY: User PleaseStand reported that
on wikis that allow raw HTML, it is not safe to
preview wikitext coming from an untrusted source such
as a cross-site request. Thus add an edit token to the
form, and when raw HTML is allowed, ensure the token
is provided before showing the preview. This check is
not performed on wikis that both allow raw HTML and
anonymous editing, since there are easier ways to
exploit that scenario.
- (bug 72222) SECURITY: Do not show log action when the
entry is revdeleted with DELETED_ACTION. NOTICE: this
may be reverted in a future release pending a public
RFC about the desired functionality. This issue was
reported by user Bawolff.
- (bug 71621) Make allowing site-wide styles on
restricted special pages a config option.
- (bug 42723) Added updated version history from 1.19.2
to 1.22.13
- $wgMangleFlashPolicy was added to make MediaWiki's
mangling of anything that might be a flash policy
directive configurable.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
