Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-04-09 04:24:15 UTC 
1) CVE-2020-10960

Description:
"In MediaWiki before 1.34.1, users can add various Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) classes (which can affect what content is shown or hidden in the user interface) to arbitrary DOM nodes via HTML content within a MediaWiki page. This occurs because jquery.makeCollapsible allows applying an event handler to any Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) selector. There is no known way to exploit this for cross-site scripting (XSS)."

"SECURITY: jquery.makeCollapsible allows applying event handler to any CSS selector."

Resetting sanity check; package list is empty or all packages are done.
Comment 8 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-04-16 21:42:17 UTC 
I think we can classify these as XSS, so noglsa.

@robbat2, can you verify wiki.*'s fork isn't vulnerable to these?
