    blocks that contain XML entities, to prevent various DoS
    attacks.

    - (bug T85848) SECURITY: Don't allow directly calling
      Xml::isWellFormed, to reduce likelihood of DoS.

    - (bug T88310) SECURITY: Always expand xml entities when
      checking SVG's.

    - (bug T73394) SECURITY: Escape > in
      Html::expandAttributes to prevent XSS.

      length to prevent DoS when using PBKDF2.

    - (bug T85349, bug T85850, bug T86711) SECURITY:
      Multiple issues fixed in SVG filtering to prevent XSS
      and protect viewer's privacy.

    - Fix case of SpecialAllPages/SpecialAllMessages in
      SpecialPageFactory to fix loading these special pages
      when $wgAutoloadAttemptLowercase is false.

    - (bug T70087) Fix Special:ActiveUsers page for
      installations using PostgreSQL.
