    this.\r\n* (bug T77028) [SECURITY] Malicious site can
    bypass CORS restrictions in $wgCrossSiteAJAXdomains in
    API calls if it only included an allowed domain as part
    of its name.\r\n* (bug T74222) The original patch for
    T74222 was reverted as unnecessary.\r\n* Fixed a couple
    of entries in RELEASE-NOTES-1.24.\r\n* (bug T76168)
    OutputPage: Add accessors for some protected
    properties.\r\n* (bug T74834) Make 1.24 branch directly
    installable under PostgreSQL.

description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
