| Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.131120 |
| Category: | Mageia Linux Local Security Checks |
| Title: | Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2015-0421) |
| Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'mediawiki' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0421 advisory. |
| Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'mediawiki' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0421 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Updated mediawiki packages fix security vulnerabilities: In MediaWiki before 1.23.11, the API failed to correctly stop adding new chunks to the upload when the reported size was exceeded, allowing a malicious user to upload add an infinite number of chunks for a single file upload (CVE-2015-8001). In MediaWiki before 1.23.11, a malicious user could upload chunks of 1 byte for very large files, potentially creating a very large number of files on the server's filesystem (CVE-2015-8002). In MediaWiki before 1.23.11, it is not possible to throttle file uploads, or in other words, rate limit them (CVE-2015-8003). In MediaWiki before 1.23.11, a missing authorization check when removing suppression from a revision allowed users with the 'viewsuppressed' user right but not the appropriate 'suppressrevision' user right to unsuppress revisions (CVE-2015-8004). In MediaWiki before 1.23.11, thumbnails of PNG files generated with ImageMagick contained the local file path in the image (CVE-2015-8005). Affected Software/OS: 'mediawiki' package(s) on Mageia 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:C |
