Summary

When passing an unknown service name to embedvideo, an error message is rendered containing the invalid service name. The service name is not sanitized and can contain HTML.

Details

There is a hardcoded list of allowed services in a switch statement inside EmbedServiceFactory#newFromName here. When the service name is not known, an exception is thrown with the service name injected into the message via sprintf here. This message is not sanitized and is marked as isHtml here. Similarly with {{evl: here.

PoC

// Must be on a page, not on ExpandTemplates
{{#ev:<img src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)>|dQw4w9WgXcQ}}
{{#evl:id=dummy|service=<img src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)>}}

Impact

Stored XSS that allows arbitrary Javascript/HTML insertion on any page that a user can edit. It requires no interaction and executes in the wiki origin for every visitor to the page.

AnalysisAI

Stored cross-site scripting in the EmbedVideo MediaWiki extension allows authenticated wiki editors to inject arbitrary JavaScript by providing a malicious service name in parser tags. An attacker with page edit privileges can embed HTML/JavaScript that executes in the context of any visitor's browser, leading to session hijacking, content defacement, or other client-side attacks. Publicly available exploit code exists, and affected versions <=4.0.0 of the composer package are vulnerable.
