CVE-2024-34500

XSS can occur through an interface message.

MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 0.47%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.47%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in the UnlinkedWikibase extension in MediaWiki before 1.39.6, 1.40.x before 1.40.2, and 1.41.x before 1.41.1. XSS can occur through an interface message.
