Vulnerability in Wikimedia Foundation MediaWiki. This vulnerability is associated with program files includes/Api/ApiFormatXml.Php.

This issue affects MediaWiki: from before 1.39.16, 1.43.6, 1.44.3, 1.45.1.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.10, 1.36.x through 1.38.x before 1.38.6, and 1.39.x before 1.39.3. An auto-block can occur for an untrusted X-Forwarded-For header.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.8, 1.36.x and 1.37.x before 1.37.5, and 1.38.x before 1.38.3. HTMLUserTextField exposes the existence of hidden users.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.8, 1.36.x and 1.37.x before 1.37.5, and 1.38.x before 1.38.3. When changes made by an IP address are reassigned to a user (using reassignEdits.php), the changes will still be attributed to the IP address on Special:Contributions when doing a range lookup.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.37.3 and 1.38.x before 1.38.1. The contributions-title, used on Special:Contributions, is used as page title without escaping. Hence, in a non-default configuration where a username contains HTML entities, it won't be escaped.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.7, 1.36.x and 1.37.x before 1.37.3, and 1.38.x before 1.38.1. XSS can occur in configurations that allow a JavaScript payload in a username. After account creation, when it sets the page title to "Welcome" followed by the username, the username is not escaped: SpecialCreateAccount::successfulAction() calls ::showSuccessPage() with a message as second parameter, and OutputPage::setPageTitle() uses text().

A denial-of-service issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.6, 1.36.x before 1.36.4, and 1.37.x before 1.37.2. When many files exist, requesting Special:NewFiles with actor as a condition can result in a very long running query.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.9, 1.36.x through 1.38.x before 1.38.5, and 1.39.x before 1.39.1. When installing with a pre-existing data directory that has weak permissions, the SQLite files are created with file mode 0644, i.e., world readable to local users. These files include credentials data.

An XSS issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.6, 1.36.x before 1.36.4, and 1.37.x before 1.37.2. The widthheight, widthheightpage, and nbytes properties of messages are not escaped when used in galleries or Special:RevisionDelete.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.6, 1.36.x before 1.36.4, and 1.37.x before 1.37.2. Users with the editinterface permission can trigger infinite recursion, because a bare local interwiki is mishandled for the mainpage message.

An issue was discovered in the AbuseFilter extension for MediaWiki before 1.39.9, 1.40.x and 1.41.x before 1.41.3, and 1.42.x before 1.42.2. An API caller can match a filter condition against AbuseFilter logs even if the caller is not authorized to view the log details for the filter.

An issue was discovered in includes/CommentFormatter/CommentParser.php in MediaWiki before 1.39.7, 1.40.x before 1.40.3, and 1.41.x before 1.41.1. XSS can occur because of mishandling of the 0x1b character, as demonstrated by Special:RecentChanges#%1b0000000.

An issue was discovered in includes/specials/SpecialMovePage.php in MediaWiki before 1.39.7, 1.40.x before 1.40.3, and 1.41.x before 1.41.1. If a user with the necessary rights to move the page opens Special:MovePage for a page with tens of thousands of subpages, then the page will exceed the maximum request time, leading to a denial of service.

Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity vulnerability in Wikimedia Foundation MediaWiki - VisualData Extension allows Regular Expression Exponential Blowup.This issue affects MediaWiki - VisualData Extension: 1.45.

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in Wikimedia Foundation MediaWiki - CSS extension allows Path Traversal.This issue affects MediaWiki - CSS extension: 1.44, 1.43, 1.39.

Summary With $wgEmbedVideoRequireConsent disabled (not the default), the urls for videos are passed into an iframe src attribute without sanitization. When given a malformed url or id, the src attribute can be escaped via double quotes, allowing for html/javascript injection.

Details The iframe assembled here adds the url from getUrl() as the src without sanitization. The id regex for the archiveorg service and the url regexes for the wistia and sharepoint services allow for double quotes to be introduced.

PoC Using double quotes, the src attribute can be escaped. <embedvideo service="archiveorg" id='a" onmouseover="alert(document.domain)" data-x="'></embedvideo>

Impact When $wgEmbedVideoRequireConsent = false, any user able to edit a page can inject arbitrary JavaScript into an HTML event handler attribute (e.g. onfocus) via parameter. It requires no interaction (autofires via autofocus) and executes in the wiki origin for every visitor to the page.

Bucket is a MediaWiki extension to store and retrieve structured data on articles. Prior to version 1.0.0, infinite recursion can occur if a user queries a bucket using the != comparator. This will result in PHP's call stack limit exceeding, and/or increased memory consumption, potentially leading to a denial of service. Version 1.0.0 contains a patch for the issue.
