Descriptions

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.31.12 and 1.32.x through 1.35.x before 1.35.2. Users can bypass intended restrictions on deleting pages in certain "fast double move" situations. MovePage::isValidMoveTarget() uses FOR UPDATE, but it's only called if Title::getArticleID() returns non-zero with no special flags. Next, MovePage::moveToInternal() will delete the page if getArticleID(READ_LATEST) is non-zero. Therefore, if the page is missing in the replica DB, isValidMove() will return true, and then moveToInternal() will unconditionally delete the page if it can be found in the master.

Se detectó un problema en MediaWiki versiones anteriores a 1.31.12 y versiones 1.32.x hasta 1.35.x versiones anteriores a 1.35.2. Unos usuarios pueden omitir unas restricciones previstas sobre la eliminación de páginas en determinadas situaciones de "fast double move". La función MovePage::isValidMoveTarget() usa FOR UPDATE, pero solo es llamada si la función Title::getArticleID() devuelve un valor distinto de cero sin indicadores especiales. A continuación, MovePage::moveToInternal() eliminará la página si getArticleID(READ_LATEST) no es cero. Por lo tanto, si la página falta en la réplica de la base de datos, la función isValidMove() devolverá verdadero, y luego moveToInternal() eliminará incondicionalmente la página si se puede encontrar en el maestro
