CVE-2012-1582 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1582): Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the wikitext parser in MediaWiki 1.17.x before 1.17.3 and 1.18.x before 1.18.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted page with "forged strip item markers," as demonstrated using the CharInsert extension. CVE-2012-1581 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1581): MediaWiki 1.17.x before 1.17.3 and 1.18.x before 1.18.2 uses weak random numbers for password reset tokens, which makes it easier for remote attackers to change the passwords of arbitrary users. CVE-2012-1580 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1580): Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Special:Upload in MediaWiki 1.17.x before 1.17.3 and 1.18.x before 1.18.2 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of unspecified victims for requests that upload files.
