Synopsis ========
MediaWiki is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack that could allow arbitrary JavaScript code execution.
Background ==========
MediaWiki is a collaborative editing software, used by big projects like Wikipedia.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 www-apps/mediawiki < 1.4.7 >= 1.4.7
Description ===========
MediaWiki fails to escape a parameter in the page move template correctly.
Impact ======
By enticing a user to visit a specially crafted URL, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious JavaScript code that will be executed in a user's browser session in the context of the vulnerable site.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All MediaWiki users should upgrade to the latest available version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/mediawiki-1.4.7"
