Improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command ('SQL injection') vulnerability in The Wikimedia Foundation Mediawiki - Cargo Extension allows SQL Injection.
This issue affects Mediawiki - Cargo Extension: from * before 1.43.9,1.44.6,1.45.4.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in the Wikimedia Foundation's Cargo Extension for MediaWiki exposes all installations running versions prior to 1.43.9, 1.44.6, or 1.45.4 to unauthenticated database manipulation via the Cargo query interface. The flaw stems from improper neutralization of user-controlled input incorporated into SQL statements without adequate parameterization, allowing attackers to read, modify, or partially disrupt data stored in Cargo-managed tables. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The Cargo Extension must be installed and active on the target MediaWiki instance. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) signals low-complexity, unauthenticated, remotely reachable exploitation - a serious attack surface for any SQL injection class vulnerability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker locates a public MediaWiki page that renders a Cargo query template to display structured wiki data, then crafts a malicious URL or POST parameter injecting SQL metacharacters into a Cargo filter or field argument. The injected payload manipulates the underlying SQL statement executed against the MediaWiki database, enabling extraction of data from Cargo-managed tables or unauthorized record modification. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade the Cargo Extension to the patched release for your MediaWiki branch: 1.43.9 for the 1.43.x series, 1.44.6 for the 1.44.x series, or 1.45.4 for the 1.45.x series. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
