    Package : mediawiki-extensions
    Vulnerability : cross-site scripting
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : not yet assigned
    Debian Bug : 696179

    Thorsten Glaser discovered that the RSSReader extension for mediawiki, a website engine for collaborative work, does not properly escape tags in
    feeds. This could allow a malicious feed to inject JavaScript into the mediawiki pages.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.3squeeze2.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem will be fixed soon.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.11.

    We recommend that you upgrade your mediawiki-extensions packages.
