MediaWiki 1.28.2
This is a security release of the MediaWiki 1.28 branch.

Due to a mistake in packaging, the releases 1.27.2 and 1.28.1 did not contain the fix for SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi. This new release does contain that fix.

Changes since 1.28.1
None

Changes since 1.28.0

 * $wgRunJobsAsync is now false by default (T142751). This change only affects wikis with $wgJobRunRate > 0.
 * Fix fatal from "WaitConditionLoop" not being found, experienced when a wiki has more than one database server setup.

Änderungen seit 1.28.0-rc1

 * (T148957) Replace with  on db errors.
 * (T148956) Only apply to postgres/mssql.
 * (T145991) Introduce separate log action for deleting pages on move.
 * (T141474) (T110464) Bypass login page if no user input is required.

Änderungen seit 1.28.0-rc0

 * (T142210) The changes to move the parser "NewPP limit report" from a HTML comment to a machine-readable JavaScript config option 'wgPageParseReport' have been undone. They caused the human-readable limit report to be shown incompletely or not at all. ParserOutput::setLimitReportData and getLimitReportData behave as they did in MediaWiki 1.27 again.
 * (T149510) Value of parser function will not be used for the text of subheadings on a category page when creating it. This wasn't working correctly.
 * (T106793) MediaWiki will no longer try to perform a HTTP redirect to the canonical pretty URL when a non-pretty URL is used. It resulted in redirect loops in some clients and in some server configurations. This undoes a change made in MediaWiki 1.26.
 * (T149759) manifest_version: 2 was removed.

Konfigurationsänderungen

 * now affects status code of action=history if the page is not there.
 * BREAKING CHANGE: is now *required* for all external requests made by MediaWiki via a proxy. Relying on the http_proxy environment variable is no longer supported.
 * The load.php entry point now enforces the existing policy of not allowing access to session data, which includes the session user and the session user's language. If such access is attempted, an exception will be thrown.
 * The number of internal PBKDF2 iterations used to derive the session secret is configurable via.
 * Upload dialog's file upload log comment can now be configured separately for local and foreign uploads.
 * now defaults to `[ 'local' ]`, where `'local'` signifies local uploads. A value of `[]` (empty array) now means that no upload targets are allowed, effectively disabling the upload dialog.
 * The deprecated variable has been removed; it was only used for Esperanto language character conversion. You are now recommended to use input methods provided by the UniversalLanguageSelector extension.
 * When is true, MediaWiki will periodically ping https://www.mediawiki.org/beacon with basic information about the local MediaWiki installation. This data includes, for example, the type of system, PHP version, and chosen database backend. This behavior is off by default.
 * When is true, MediaWiki will label the button to store-to-database-and-show-to-others as "Publish page"/"Publish changes"; if false, the default, they will be "Save page"/"Save changes".
 * The 'editcontentmodel' permission is now granted to all logged-in users ('user'). instead of just administrators ('sysop'). Documentation for this feature is available at Help:ChangeContentModel.
 * is now set to one week by default instead of being disabled.
 * Magic links are now disabled by default, and can be re-enabled by modifying the value of . Their usage is discouraged, but if they are manually enabled, a tracking category will be added to help identify usage and make it easier to migrate away from. If you depend upon magic link functionality, it is requested that you comment on Requests for comment/Future of magic links and explain your use case(s).
 * New config variable to control what URLs to ignore in upcoming Content-Security-Policy feature's reporting.

Neue Funktionen

 * User::isBot method for checking if an account is a bot role account.
 * Added a new 'slideshow' mode for galleries.
 * Added a new hook, 'UserIsBot', to aid in determining if a user is a bot.
 * Added a new hook, 'ApiMakeParserOptions', to allow extensions to better interact with API parsing.
 * Added a new hook, 'UploadVerifyUpload', which can be used to reject a file upload. Unlike 'UploadVerifyFile' it provides information about upload comment and the file description page, but does not run for uploads to stash.
 * (T141604) Extensions can now provide a better error message when their maintenance scripts are run without the extension being installed.
 * (T8948) Numeric sorting in categories is now supported by setting $wgCategoryCollation to 'uca-default-u-kn' or 'uca- -u-kn'. If you can't use UCA collations, a 'numeric' collation is also available. If migrating from another collation, you will need to run the updateCollation.php maintenance script.
 * Two new codes have been added to #time parser function: "xit" for days in current month, and "xiz" for days passed in the year, both in Iranian calendar.
 * mw.Api has a new option, useUS, to use U+001F (Unit Separator) when appropriate for sending multi-valued parameters. This defaults to true when the mw.Api instance seems to be for the local wiki.
 * After a client performs an action which alters a database that has replica databases, MediaWiki will wait for the replica databases to synchronize with the master database while it renders the HTML output. However, if the output is a redirect to another wiki on the wiki farm with a different domain, MediaWiki will instead alter the redirect URL to include a ?cpPosTime parameter that triggers the database synchronization when the URL is followed by the client. The same-domain case uses a new cpPosTime cookie.
 * Added new hooks, 'ApiQueryBaseBeforeQuery', 'ApiQueryBaseAfterQuery', and 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow', to make it easier for extensions to add 'prop' and 'show' parameters to existing API query modules.

Upgraded external libraries

 * Updated es5-shim from v4.1.5 to v4.5.8
 * Updated from v1.4.1 to v1.4.2
 * Updated from v1.0.3 to v1.0.4

New external libraries

 * Added v1.0.0
 * Added v1.0.1

Fehlerkorrekturen

 * (T146496) action=history pages should return 404 HTTP error code if the page does not exist
 * (T137264) SECURITY: XSS in unclosed internal links
 * (T133147) SECURITY: Escape '<' and ']]>' in inline blocks
 * (T133147) SECURITY: Require login to preview user CSS pages
 * (T132926) SECURITY: Do not allow undeleting a revision deleted file if it is the top file
 * (T129738) SECURITY: Make $wgBlockDisablesLogin also restrict logged in permissions
 * (T129738) SECURITY: Make blocks log users out if $wgBlockDisablesLogin is true
 * (T139670) Move 'UserGetRights' call before application of Session::getAllowedUserRights

Action API changes

 * Added 'maxarticlesize' property to action=query&meta=siteinfo which contains the value of $wgMaxArticleSize.
 * Property 'modulemessages' from action=parse&prop=modules was removed (deprecated since 1.26).
 * The following response properties from action=login, deprecated in 1.27, are now removed: lgtoken, cookieprefix, sessionid. Clients should handle cookies to properly manage session state.
 * Submitting the lgtoken and lgpassword parameters in the query string to action=login is now deprecated and outputs a warning. They should be submitted in the POST body instead.
 * Submitting sensitive authentication request parameters to action=clientlogin, action=createaccount, action=linkaccount, and action=changeauthenticationdata in the query string is now deprecated and outputs a warning. They should be submitted in the POST body instead.
 * (T141960) Multi-valued parameters may now be separated using U+001F (Unit Separator) instead of the pipe character. This will be useful if some of the multiple values need to contain pipes, e.g. for action=options.
 * The API will now warn if input is not NFC-normalized Unicode or if it contains invalid characters.
 * The 'normalized' list output by action=query and other modules that use ApiPageSet may contain entries where the 'from' value is percent-encoded as the raw value cannot be represented in a valid API response. These are indicated by a 'fromencoded' boolean alongside the existing 'from' parameter.
 * (T28680) action=paraminfo can now return info about all submodules of a module without listing them all explicitly.
 * (T146770) It is now possible to assert that the current user is a specific named user, using the 'assertuser' parameter.
 * (T141963) Added a 'known' property when missing-but-known titles (e.g. from the 'TitleIsAlwaysKnown' hook) are output in various modules.

 * ApiResult::setParsedLimit was removed (deprecated since 1.25)
 * ApiResult::setRawMode was removed (deprecated since 1.25)
 * ApiResult::size was removed (deprecated since 1.25)
 * Added new hooks, 'ApiQueryBaseBeforeQuery', 'ApiQueryBaseAfterQuery', and 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow', to make it easier for extensions to add 'prop' and 'show' parameters to existing API query modules. A query module can enable these hooks by passing an array for $hookData to ApiQueryBase::select and by calling ApiQueryBase->processRow before adding a row's data to the result.

Kompatibilität
MediWiki 1.28 benötigt PHP 5.5.9 oder neuer. There is experimental support for HHVM 3.6.5 or later.

MySQL is the recommended DBMS. PostgreSQL or SQLite can also be used, but support for them is somewhat less mature. There is experimental support for Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.

The supported versions are:


 * MySQL 5.0.3+
 * PostgreSQL 8.3+
 * SQLite 3.3.7+
 * Oracle 9.0.1+
 * Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (9.00.1399)

Upgrade
1.28 hat einige Datenbankänderungen seit 1.27 und wird nicht ohne Schemaupdates funktionieren. Aufgrund von Änderungen an manch großen Tabellen wie der Revisionstabelle kann das Schemaupdate etwas länger dauern (Minuten auf einer mittelgroßen Seite, viele Stunden auf einer großen Seite).

Wenn du von vor 1.11 upgradest und ein Wiki als gemeinsames Archiv verwendet wird, stelle sicher, dass auch dieses upgedated wird. Ansonsten können Fehler aufgrund von Änderungen im Datenbankschema auftreten.

Wenn du von vor 1.7 upgradest, solltest du refreshLinks.php starten, um zu gewährleisten, dass neue Datenbankfelder mit Daten gefüllt sind.

Wenn du von MediaWiki 1.4.x oder früher updatest, solltest du zuerst auf 1.5 upgraden. Das Upgradescript maintenance/upgrade1_5.php wurde mit MediaWiki 1.21 entfernt.

Vergiss nicht, vor einem Upgrade immer ein Backup der Datenbank zu erstellen!

Siehe die Datei UPGRADE für detailliertere Upgradeanweisungen.

Für Hinweise zu 1.27.x und älteren Aktualisierungen siehe HISTORY.
