Citizen has a Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability by editing MediaWiki:Tagline
Citizen is a MediaWiki skin that makes extensions part of the cohesive experience. The page `MediaWiki:Tagline` has its contents used unescaped, so custom HTML (including Javascript) can be injected by someone with the ability to edit the MediaWiki namespace (typically those with the `editinterface` permission, or sysops). This vulnerability is fixed in 2.16.0.
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.
An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.14, 1.36.x through 1.39.x before 1.39.6, and 1.40.x before 1.40.2. In includes/logging/RightsLogFormatter.php, group-*-member messages can result in XSS on Special:log/rights.
An issue was discovered in DifferenceEngine.php in MediaWiki before 1.35.12, 1.36.x through 1.39.x before 1.39.5, and 1.40.x before 1.40.1. diff-multi-sameuser (aka "X intermediate revisions by the same user not shown") ignores username suppression. This is an information leak.
An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.12, 1.36.x through 1.39.x before 1.39.5, and 1.40.x before 1.40.1. There is XSS in youhavenewmessagesmanyusers and youhavenewmessages i18n messages. This is related to MediaWiki:Youhavenewmessagesfromusers.
An issue was discovered in includes/page/Article.php in MediaWiki 1.36.x through 1.39.x before 1.39.5 and 1.40.x before 1.40.1. Deleted revision existence is leaked due to incorrect permissions being checked. This reveals that a given revision ID belonged to the given page title, and its timestamp, both of which are not supposed to be public information.
An issue was discovered in ApiPageSet.php in MediaWiki before 1.35.12, 1.36.x through 1.39.x before 1.39.5, and 1.40.x before 1.40.1. It allows attackers to cause a denial of service (unbounded loop and RequestTimeoutException) when querying pages redirected to other variants with redirects and converttitles set.
Stored XSS leads to privilege escalation in MediaWiki v1.40.0
Mediawiki v1.40.0 does not validate namespaces used in XML files.
Therefore, if the instance administrator allows XML file uploads,
a remote attacker with a low-privileged user account can use this
exploit to become an administrator by sending a malicious link to
the instance administrator.
An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.11, 1.36.x through 1.38.x before 1.38.7, 1.39.x before 1.39.4, and 1.40.x before 1.40.1. It is possible to bypass the Bad image list (aka badFile) by using the thumb parameter (aka Manualthumb) of the File syntax.
