CVE-2015-8004: MediaWiki before 1.23.11, 1.24.x before 1.24.4, and 1.25.x before 1.25.3 does not properly restrict access...

MediaWiki before 1.23.11, 1.24.x before 1.24.4, and 1.25.x before 1.25.3 does not properly restrict access to revisions, which allows remote authenticated users with the viewsuppressed user right to remove revision suppressions via a crafted revisiondelete action, which returns a valid a change form.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw could let a privileged MediaWiki account undo suppression on hidden page revisions. For organizations using revision suppression to protect sensitive, private, or legally restricted content, the main risk is unintended disclosure by someone who already has special wiki rights. Exposure is limited to MediaWiki deployments running the affected version ranges and having accounts with viewsuppressed rights. Risk is higher where suppressed revisions contain sensitive information or where privileged wiki accounts are broadly assigned. Treat this as a targeted insider or compromised-privileged-account risk. Prioritize upgrades for wikis that store sensitive suppressed content or have many privileged editors. Mitigation focus: Upgrade MediaWiki to 1.23.11, 1.24.4, 1.25.3, or a later supported release.; Review Wikimedia security release guidance for any deployment-specific instructions.; Limit viewsuppressed rights to trusted administrators with a current business need..
