    Multiple security issues were discovered in MediaWiki, a website engine     for collaborative work, which could result in cross-site scripting,     information disclosure, HTML injection or incorrect tracking of     authentication events.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 1:1.39.13-1~deb12u1.
