An information leak was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.31.10 and 1.32.x through 1.34.x before 1.34.4. Handling of actor ID does not necessarily use the correct database or correct wiki.
In MediaWiki before 1.31.8, 1.32.x and 1.33.x before 1.33.4, and 1.34.x before 1.34.2, private wikis behind a caching server using the img_auth.php image authorization security feature may have had their files cached publicly, so any unauthorized user could view them. This occurs because Cache-Control and Vary headers were mishandled.
resources/src/mediawiki.page.ready/ready.js in MediaWiki before 1.35 allows remote attackers to force a logout and external redirection via HTML content in a MediaWiki page.
The CentralAuth extension through REL1_34 for MediaWiki allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive hidden account information via an api.php?action=query&meta=globaluserinfo&guiuser= request. In other words, the information can be retrieved via the action API even though access would be denied when simply visiting wiki/Special:CentralAuth in a web browser.
In MediaWiki before 1.34.1, users can add various Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) classes (which can affect what content is shown or hidden in the user interface) to arbitrary DOM nodes via HTML content within a MediaWiki page. This occurs because jquery.makeCollapsible allows applying an event handler to any Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) selector. There is no known way to exploit this for cross-site scripting (XSS).
An issue was discovered in the AbuseFilter extension for MediaWiki. includes/special/SpecialAbuseLog.php allows attackers to obtain sensitive information, such as deleted/suppressed usernames and summaries, from AbuseLog revision data. This affects REL1_32 and REL1_33.
An issue was discovered in the CheckUser extension through 1.35.0 for MediaWiki. Oversighted edit summaries are still visible in CheckUser results in violation of MediaWiki's permissions model.
In the MobileFrontend extension for MediaWiki, XSS exists within the edit summary field of the watchlist feed. This affects REL1_31, REL1_32, and REL1_33.
In the GlobalBlocking extension before 2020-03-10 for MediaWiki through 1.34.0, an issue related to IP range evaluation resulted in blocked users re-gaining escalated privileges. This is related to the case in which an IP address is contained in two ranges, one of which is locally disabled.
MediaWiki before 1.18.5, and 1.19.x before 1.19.2 saves passwords in the local database, (1) which could make it easier for context-dependent attackers to obtain cleartext passwords via a brute-force attack or, (2) when an authentication plugin returns a false in the strict function, could allow remote attackers to use old passwords for non-existing accounts in an external authentication system via unspecified vectors.
