| Description: | From the CVE entries:
includes/upload/UploadBase.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.12, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.6, and 1.22.x before 1.22.3 does not prevent use of invalid namespaces in SVG files, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via an SVG upload, as demonstrated by use of a W3C XHTML namespace in conjunction with an IFRAME element. (CVE-2014-2242). includes/User.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.12, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.6, and 1.22.x before 1.22.3 terminates validation of a user token upon encountering the first incorrect character, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access via a brute-force attack that relies on timing differences in responses to incorrect token guesses. (CVE-2014-2243). Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the formatHTML function in includes/api/ApiFormatBase.php in MediaWiki before 1.19.12, 1.20.x and 1.21.x before 1.21.6, and 1.22.x before 1.22.3 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted string located after http:// in the text parameter to api.php. (CVE-2014-2244). | ||||||||||||||||||||||
