The Wikimedia Security Team recommends updating these extensions and/or
skins to the current master branch or relevant, supported release branch
[2] as soon as possible. Some of the referenced Phabricator tasks above
_may_ still be private. Unfortunately, when security issues are reported,
sometimes sensitive information is exposed and since Phabricator is
historical, we cannot make these tasks public without exposing this
sensitive information. If you have any additional questions or concerns
regarding this update, please feel free to contact secur...@wikimedia.org
or file a security task within Phabricator [3].

[Wikitech-l] Re: [Ops] [Train] 1.41.0-wmf.3 status update

[Antoine Musso]

Le 04/04/2023 à 17:09, Antoine Musso a écrit :


Roll out of MediaWiki 1.41.0-wmf.3 is blocked (T330209 
).


The new version is only deployed on testswiki and will not move 
forward due to:


  * T333966 - message keys shown on beta and test Wikidata


While we had 28056 l10n entries with 1.41.0-wmf.2 we only have 18527 
entries in 1.41.0-wmf.3 or 34% less. Something is off in how we grab 
the l10n messages or how we merge them from the various sources.


Once the issue is resolved the train can resume.


Hello,

The blocker has been addressed and we have all l10n messages again 
(thank you!). I will promote group 0 to 1.41.0-wmf.3 right now.

[Wikitech-l] Support for plain HTTP disabled on GitLab

[Jelto Wodstrcil]

Hello,
Wikimedia is deprecating and phasing out unencrypted HTTP (
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T238720), as part of this effort
http://gitlab.wikimedia.org now listens on port 433 only. It should not
cause any issue since we have always serve GitLab over HTTPS.
It might be possible that a bot or a local config relied on http:// and
those unlikely case will now be broken. The change is
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/puppet/+/904843 If you see any
issue, please reach out on Phabricator task above.
