CVE-2010-1150 Information

Description

MediaWiki before 1.15.3 and 1.6.x before 1.16.0beta2 does not properly handle a correctly authenticated but unintended login attempt which makes it easier for remote authenticated users to conduct phishing attacks by arranging for a victim to login to the attacker’s account and then execute a crafted user script related to a \login CSRF\ issue.
