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.

An issue was discovered in CentralAuth in MediaWiki through 1.36.2. The rightsnone MediaWiki message was not being properly sanitized and allowed for the injection and execution of HTML and JavaScript via the setchange log.

In MediaWiki before 1.35.1, the combination of Html::rawElement and Message::text leads to XSS because the definition of MediaWiki:recentchanges-legend-watchlistexpiry can be changed onwiki so that the output is raw HTML.

An issue was discovered in the GlobalWatchlist extension in MediaWiki through 1.36.2. The rev-deleted-user and ntimes messages were not properly escaped and allowed for users to inject HTML and JavaScript.

An issue was discovered in the Growth extension in MediaWiki through 1.36.2. On any Wiki with the Mentor Dashboard feature enabled, users can login with a mentor account and trigger an XSS payload (such as alert) via Growthexperiments-mentor-dashboard-mentee-overview-no-js-fallback.

An issue was discovered in SecurePoll in the Growth extension in MediaWiki through 1.36.2. Simple polls allow users to create alerts by changing their User-Agent HTTP header and submitting a vote.

An issue was discovered in Special:MediaSearch in the MediaSearch extension in MediaWiki through 1.36.2.

XSS exists in the MobileFrontend extension for MediaWiki before 1.34.4 because section.line is mishandled during regex section line replacement from PageGateway. Using crafted HTML, an attacker can elicit an XSS attack via jQuery's parseHTML method, which can cause image callbacks to fire even without the element being appended to the DOM.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.31.10 and 1.32.x through 1.34.x before 1.34.4. The non-jqueryMsg version of mw.message().parse() doesn't escape HTML. This affects both message contents (which are generally safe) and the parameters (which can be based on user input). (When jqueryMsg is loaded, it correctly accepts only whitelisted tags in message contents, and escapes all parameters. Situations with an unloaded jqueryMsg are rare in practice, but can for example occur for Special:SpecialPages on a wiki with no extensions installed.)

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki 1.34.x before 1.34.4. On Special:Contributions, the NS filter uses unescaped messages as keys in the option key for an HTMLForm specifier. This is vulnerable to a mild XSS if one of those messages is changed to include raw HTML.

In MediaWiki before 1.31.10 and 1.32.x through 1.34.x before 1.34.4, XSS related to jQuery can occur. The attacker creates a message with [javascript:payload xss] and turns it into a jQuery object with mw.message().parse(). The expected result is that the jQuery object does not contain an <a> tag (or it does not have a href attribute, or it's empty, etc.). The actual result is that the object contains an <a href ="javascript... that executes when clicked.

An issue was discovered in MediaWiki before 1.35.9, 1.36.x through 1.38.x before 1.38.5, and 1.39.x before 1.39.1. E-Widgets does widget replacement in HTML attributes, which can lead to XSS, because widget authors often do not expect that their widget is executed in an HTML attribute context.
