Debian Security Advisory DSA-2022-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Nico Golde
March 23th, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : mediawiki
Vulnerability : several
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
Debian bug : none
CVE ID : none assigned yet
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in mediawiki, a web-based wiki
engine. The following issues have been identified:
Insufficient input sanitization in the CSS validation code allows editors
to display external images in wiki pages. This can be a privacy concern
on public wikis as it allows attackers to gather IP addresses and other
information by linking these images to a web server under their control.
Insufficient permission checks have been found in thump.php which can lead
to disclosure of image files that are restricted to certain users
(e.g. with img_auth.php).
For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.12.0-2lenny4.
For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1:1.15.2-1.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1:1.15.2-1.
