MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 1.37%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.37%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
MediaWiki before 1.35.1 allows XSS via BlockLogFormatter.php. MediaWiki:blanknamespace potentially can be output as raw HTML with SCRIPT tags via LogFormatter::makePageLink(). This affects MediaWiki 1.33.0 and later.
