Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.64%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
ManageWiki is a MediaWiki extension allowing users to manage wikis. Versions before commit f504ed8, are vulnerable to SQL injection when renaming a namespace in Special:ManageWiki/namespaces when using a page prefix (namespace name, which is the current namespace you are renaming) with an injection payload. This issue has been patched in commit f504ed8. A workaround for this vulnerability involves setting `$wgManageWiki['namespaces'] = false;`.
