+= MediaWiki 1.9 =
+
+== MediaWiki 1.9.6 ==
+
+March 2, 2008
+
+* Correction for API path fix, broken in 1.9.5
+
+== MediaWiki 1.9.5 ==
+
+January 23, 2008
+
+This is a security update to the Winter 2007 quarterly release. A potential XSS
+injection vector affecting api.php only for Microsoft Internet Explorer users
+has been closed.
+
+
+To work around the vulnerability without upgrading, you may disable the API if
+you don't need it:
+
+:[[Manual:$wgEnableAPI|$wgEnableAPI]] = false;
+
+Not vulnerable versions:
+* 1.12 or later
+* 1.11 >= 1.11.1
+* 1.10 >= 1.10.3
+* 1.9 >= 1.9.5
+* 1.8 any version (if $wgEnableAPI has been left off)
+
+Vulnerable versions:
+* 1.11 <= 1.11.0rc1
+* 1.10 <= 1.10.2
+* 1.9 <= 1.9.4
+* 1.8 any version (if $wgEnableAPI has been switched on)
+
+MediaWiki 1.7 and below are not affected as they do not include the API
+functionality, however the BotQuery extension is similarly vulnerable unless
+updated to the latest SVN version.
+
+== MediaWiki 1.9.4 ==
+
+September 10, 2007
+
+This is a security and bug fix update to the Winter 2007 quarterly release.
+Minor compatibility fixes for IIS 5 are included.
+
+* (bug [[bugzilla:8847|8847]]) Strip spurious #fragments from request URI to
+fix redirect loops on some server configurations
+* A possible HTML/XSS injection vector in the API pretty-printing mode has been
+found and fixed.
+
+The vulnerability may be worked around in an unfixed version by simply
+disabling the API interface if it is not in use, by adding this to
+LocalSettings.php:
+
+:[[Manual:$wgEnableAPI|$wgEnableAPI]] = false;
+
+Not vulnerable versions:
+* 1.11 >= 1.11.0
+* 1.10 >= 1.10.2
+* 1.9 >= 1.9.4
+* 1.8 >= 1.8.5
+
+Vulnerable versions:
+* 1.11 <= 1.11.0rc1
+* 1.10 <= 1.10.1
+* 1.9 <= 1.9.3
+* 1.8 <= 1.8.4 (if $wgEnableAPI has been switched on)
+
+MediaWiki 1.7 and below are not affected as they do not include the faulty
+function, however the BotQuery extension is similarly vulnerable unless updated
+to the latest SVN version.
+
+== MediaWiki 1.9.3 ==
+
+February 20, 2007
+
+This is a security and bug-fix update to the Winter 2007 quarterly release.
+Minor compatibility fixes for IIS and PostgreSQL are included.
+
+An XSS injection vulnerability based on Microsoft Internet Explorer's UTF-7
+charset autodetection was located in the AJAX support module, affecting MSIE
+users on MediaWiki 1.6.x and up when the optional setting $wgUseAjax is enabled.
+
+If you are using an extension based on the optional Ajax module, either disable
+it or upgrade to a version containing the fix:
+
+* 1.9: fixed in 1.9.3
+* 1.8: fixed in 1.8.4
+* 1.7: fixed in 1.7.3
+* 1.6: fixed in 1.6.10
+
+There is no known danger in the default configuration, with ''$wgUseAjax'' off.
+
+* ([[mediazilla:8992|8992]]) Fix a remaining raw use of REQUEST_URI in history
+* ([[mediazilla:8984|8984]]) Fix a database error in
+Special:Recentchangeslinked when using the PostgreSQL database.
+* Add ''charset'' to Content-Type headers on various HTTP error responses to
+forestall additional UTF-7-autodetect XSS issues. PHP sends only ''text/html''
+by default when the script didn't specify more details, which some
+inconsiderate browsers consider a license to autodetect the deadly,
+hard-to-escape UTF-7. This fixes an issue with the Ajax interface error message
+on MSIE when ''$wgUseAjax'' is enabled (not default configuration); this UTF-7
+variant on a previously fixed attack vector was discovered by Moshe BA from
+BugSec: [http://www.bugsec.com/articles.php?Security=24
+http://www.bugsec.com/articles.php?Security=24]
+* Trackback responses now specify XML content type
+
+== MediaWiki 1.9.2 ==
+
+February 4, 2007
+
+This is a bug-fix update that fixes some installation and other minor issues
+with the 1.9.1 release as well as a security issue which was introduced in the
+1.9 branch.
+
+JavaScript code which regenerated the "sortable tables" feature did not
+properly sanitize input, leading to an HTML injection vulnerability.
+
+* ([[mediazilla:8774|8774]]) Fix path for GNU FDL rights icon on new installs
+* ([[mediazilla:8819|8819]]) Fix full path disclosure with skins dependencies
+* ([[mediazilla:8819|8819]]) Fixed data-loss bug in compressOld batch text
+compression affecting pages which had null edits (move, protect, etc) as second
+edit in a batch group. Isolated and patched by Travis Derouin.
+* Security fix for sortable tables JavaScript
+
+== MediaWiki 1.9.1 ==
+
+January 24, 2007
+
+This is a bug-fix update that fixes some installation and upgrade issues with
+the original 1.9.0 release.
+
+* ([[mediazilla:3000|3000]]) Fall back to SCRIPT_NAME plus QUERY_STRING when
+REQUEST_URI is not available, as on IIS with PHP-CGI
+* Security fix for DjVu images. (Only affects servers where .djvu file uploads
+are enabled and ''$wgDjvuToXML'' is set.)
+* ([[mediazilla:8638|8638]]) Fix update from 1.4 and earlier
+* ([[mediazilla:8641|8641]]) Fix order of updates to ipblocks table for updates
+from <=1.7
+* ([[mediazilla:8673|8673]]) Minor fix for web service API content-type header
+* Fix API revision list on PHP 5.2.1; bad reference assignment
+* Fixed up the AjaxSearch
+* Exclude settings files when generating documentation. That could expose the
+database user and password to remote users.
+* ar: fix the 'create a new page' on search page when no exact match found
+* Correct tooltip accesskey hint for Opera on the Macintosh (uses Shift-Esc-,
+not Ctrl-).
+* ([[mediazilla:8719|8719]]) Firefox release notes lie! Fix tooltips for
+Firefox 2 on x11; accesskeys default settings appear to be same as Windows.
