CVE-2019-19709GHSA-pjv5-vv93-p648

What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (mediawiki/core 1.34.0, 1.33.2, 1.32.6, 1.31.6), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

MediaWiki through 1.33.1 allows attackers to bypass the Titleblacklist protection mechanism by starting with an arbitrary title, establishing a non-resolvable redirect for the associated page, and using redirect=1 in the action API when editing that page.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2019-19709

Advisory: Possible to circumvent title-blacklist
IDs: CVE-2019-19709, GHSA-pjv5-vv93-p648
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2019-19709 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:24 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.1)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: mediawiki/core 1.34.0, 1.33.2, 1.32.6, 1.31.6. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Packagist mediawiki/core: affected >= 1.31.0, < 1.31.6; >= 1.32.0, < 1.32.6; >= 1.33.0, < 1.33.2; >= 1.33.99, < 1.34.0; fixed in 1.33.2, 1.34.0, 1.31.6, 1.32.6

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Packagist mediawiki/core: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on mediawiki/core.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
