BTW I submitted this as a bug for fedora:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=695577

My evil(ish) plan is to take over the mediawiki package for fedora and
then EPEL and then all the plugins. muahahaha! =).

Mediawiki 1.16.3 has been released with three noted flaws:

1) XSS with IE <= 6 due to improper handling of uploaded file names
2) CSS validation error in wikitext parser
3) transwiki import neglects to perform access control checks

Can CVE names be assigned to these issues?
