XSS in Special:DataDump when displaying dump status

Type: advisorySources: OSV

DataDump is a MediaWiki extension that provides dumps of wikis.

If these messages are edited (which requires the (editinterface) right by default), anyone who can view Special:DataDump (which requires the (view-dump) right by default) can be XSSed. This vulnerability is fixed with 601688ee8e8808a23b102fa305b178f27cbd226d.
