Debian Security Advisory DSA-3011-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Salvatore Bonaccorso
August 23, 2014 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : mediawiki
CVE ID : CVE-2014-5241 CVE-2014-5243
Debian Bug : 752622 758510
It was discovered that MediaWiki, a website engine for collaborative
work, is vulnerable to JSONP injection in Flash (CVE-2014-5241) and
clickjacking between OutputPage and ParserOutput (CVE-2014-5243). The
vulnerabilities are addressed by upgrading MediaWiki to the new upstream
version 1.19.18, which includes additional changes.
For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
version 1:1.19.18+dfsg-0+deb7u1.
For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your mediawiki packages.
