MediaWiki before 1.18.5, and 1.19.x before 1.19.2 does not properly protect user block metadata, which allows remote administrators to read a user block reason via a reblock attempt.
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the (1) CreateProperty, (2) CreateTemplate, (3) CreateForm, and (4) CreateClass special pages in the SemanticForms extension for MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of users for requests that have unspecified impact and vectors.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the TimeMediaHandler extension for MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to videos.
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Special:CreateCategory in the SemanticForms extension for MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of users for requests that create categories via unspecified vectors.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a -o-link attribute.
The zendinlinehashfunc function in php-luasandbox in the Scribuntu extension for MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via vectors related to converting Lua data structures to PHP, as demonstrated by passing { [{}] = 1 } to a module function.
MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allows remote attackers to obtain information about deleted page via the (1) log API, (2) enhanced RecentChanges, and (3) user watchlists.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MediaWiki before 1.19.10, 1.2x before 1.21.4, and 1.22.x before 1.22.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via crafted XSL in an SVG file.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in includes/actions/InfoAction.php in MediaWiki before 1.21.9 and 1.22.x before 1.22.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the sort key in an info action.
includes/specials/SpecialChangePassword.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.14, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.8, and 1.22.x before 1.22.5 does not properly handle a correctly authenticated but unintended login attempt, which makes it easier for remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by arranging for a victim to login to the attacker's account, as demonstrated by tracking the victim's activity, related to a "login CSRF" issue.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the formatHTML function in includes/api/ApiFormatBase.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.12, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.6, and 1.22.x before 1.22.3 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted string located after http:// in the text parameter to api.php.
includes/User.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.12, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.6, and 1.22.x before 1.22.3 terminates validation of a user token upon encountering the first incorrect character, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access via a brute-force attack that relies on timing differences in responses to incorrect token guesses.
includes/upload/UploadBase.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.12, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.6, and 1.22.x before 1.22.3 does not prevent use of invalid namespaces in SVG files, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via an SVG upload, as demonstrated by use of a W3C XHTML namespace in conjunction with an IFRAME element.
MediaWiki 1.22.x before 1.22.2, 1.21.x before 1.21.5, and 1.19.x before 1.19.11, when DjVu or PDF file upload support is enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in (1) the page parameter to includes/media/DjVu.php; (2) the w parameter (aka width field) to thumb.php, which is not properly handled by includes/media/PdfHandlerbody.php; and possibly unspecified vectors in (3) includes/media/Bitmap.php and (4) includes/media/ImageHandler.php.
Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the chunk upload API in MediaWiki 1.19 through 1.19.6 and 1.20.x before 1.20.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension.
A cross-site request forgery flaw was found in the way MediaWiki, a wiki engine, protected CSRF tokens available via the API when X-Frame-Options headers were used. Previously it was possible for a remote attacker to obtain them and possibly perform CSRF attacks.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in MediaWiki before 1.18.5 and 1.19.x before 1.19.2, when unspecified JavaScript gadgets are used, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the userlang parameter to w/index.php.
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way MediaWiki, a wiki engine, sanitized comments when a File::link tag to an non-existent image was rendered. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted URL that, when visited would lead to arbitrary HTML or web script injection.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the outputPage function in includes/SkinTemplate.php in MediaWiki before 1.17.5, 1.18.x before 1.18.4, and 1.19.x before 1.19.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the uselang parameter to index.php/Mainpage.
