Updated mediawiki packages fix security vulnerability

Publication date: 10 Jul 2020
Modification date: 10 Jul 2020
Type: security
Affected Mageia releases : 7
CVE: CVE-2019-XXXX

Description

Updated mediawiki packages fix security vulnerability:

In MediaWiki before 1.31.8, private wikis behind a caching server using
the img_auth.php image authorization security feature may have had their
files cached publicly, so any unauthorized user could view them. This 
occurs because Cache-Control and Vary headers were mishandled 
(CVE-2020-15005).
