Descriptions

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki 1.32.x through 1.34.x before 1.34.4. LogEventList::getFiltersDesc is insecurely using message text to build options names for an HTML multi-select field. The relevant code should use escaped() instead of text().

Se detectó un problema en MediaWiki desde 1.32.x hasta 1.34.x anteriores a 1.34.4. La función LogEventList::getFiltersDesc usa de forma no segura el texto del mensaje para crear nombres de opciones para un campo de selección múltiple HTML. El código relevante debe usar la función escaped() en lugar de text()

Multiple security issues were discovered in MediaWiki, a website engine existed or not, multiple code paths lacked HTML sanitisation allowing for cross-site scripting and TOTP validation applied insufficient rate limiting against brute force attempts.
