CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

The User::matchEditToken function in includes/User.php in MediaWiki before 1.23.12 and 1.24.x before 1.24.5 does not perform token comparison in constant time before returning, which allows remote attackers to guess the edit token and bypass CSRF protection via a timing attack, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8624.

CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N

MediaWiki before 1.23.12, 1.24.x before 1.24.5, 1.25.x before 1.25.4, and 1.26.x before 1.26.1 do not properly normalize IP addresses containing zero-padded octets, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by using an IP address that was not supposed to have been allowed.

CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N

MediaWiki before 1.23.12, 1.24.x before 1.24.5, 1.25.x before 1.25.4, and 1.26.x before 1.26.1 do not properly sanitize parameters when calling the cURL library, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via an @ (at sign) character in unspecified POST array parameters.

MediaWiki before 1.23.11, 1.24.x before 1.24.4, and 1.25.x before 1.25.3 does not throttle file uploads, which allows remote authenticated users to have unspecified impact via multiple file uploads.

Several flaws were found in Mediawiki:

Wikipedia user RobinHood70 reported that the API failed to correctly stop adding new chunks to the upload when the reported size was exceeded, allowing a malicious users to upload add an infinite number of chunks for a single file upload. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T91203>

Wikipedia user RobinHood70 also reported that a malicious user could upload chunks of 1 byte for very large files, potentially creating a very large number of files on the server's filesystem. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T91205>

Internal review discovered that it is not possible to throttle file uploads. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T91850>

Internal review discovered a missing authorization check when removing suppression from a revision. This allowed users with the 'viewsuppressed' user right but not the appropriate 'suppressrevision' user right to unsuppress revisions. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T95589>

Richard Stanway from teamliquid.net reported that thumbnails of PNG files generated with ImageMagick contained the local file path in the image metadata. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T108616>

Extension:PageTriage - MediaWiki user Grunny discovered a DOM-based XSS in the way the extension handled page titles. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T111029>

Extension:Echo - Internal review discovered that Echo could display deleted or suppressed usernames when the username was previously used to Thank users. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T110553>

Extension:OAuth - Wikipedia user Sitic discovered that the OAuth extension did not correctly enforce the IP restrictions of a Consumer when using previously negotiated credentials. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T103022>

Extension:OAuth - Wikipedia user Sitic discovered that OAuth would accept a valid signature from any Consumer when checking the authorization signature. This allowed a registered Consumer who gained access to another Consumer's users' access tokens and secrets to use those credentials. <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T103023>
