Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - In MediaWiki before 1.34.1, users can add various Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) classes (which can affect
 what content is shown or hidden in the user interface) to arbitrary DOM nodes via HTML content within a
