I've taken the liberty to bump the ebuilds and drop the vulnerable versions.

Stabilization targets:

* www-apps/mediawiki-1.19.18 amd64 ppc x86 (legacy stable)
* www-apps/mediawiki-1.22.10 amd64 ppc x86 (stable, upgrade path from discontinued 1.21)

Please don't use the cloning feature for security bugs. It has really created a mess with this series of bugs.

CVE-2014-5243 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-5243):
  MediaWiki before 1.19.18, 1.20.x through 1.22.x before 1.22.9, and 1.23.x
  before 1.23.2 does not enforce an IFRAME protection mechanism for
  transcluded pages, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct
  clickjacking attacks via a crafted web site.

CVE-2014-5242 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-5242):
  Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in
  mediawiki.page.image.pagination.js in MediaWiki 1.22.x before 1.22.9 and
  1.23.x before 1.23.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script
  or HTML via vectors involving the multipageimagenavbox class in conjunction
  with an action=raw value.

CVE-2014-5241 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-5241):
  The JSONP endpoint in includes/api/ApiFormatJson.php in MediaWiki before
  1.19.18, 1.20.x through 1.22.x before 1.22.9, and 1.23.x before 1.23.2
  accepts certain long callback values and does not restrict the initial bytes
  of a JSONP response, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site
  request forgery (CSRF) attacks, and obtain sensitive information, via a
  crafted OBJECT element with SWF content consistent with a restricted
  character set.
