[opensuse-web] openSUSE.org Security Alert

Hi Everyone,

Last night, we received an alert of a possible XSS or iFrame injection issue
somewhere on www.opensuse.org or one of the wikis. We temporarily redirected
the site and wikis to a maintenance page for about an hour while we assessed
the risk and impact of the alert. After learning a little more, we felt that
it was not a legitimate alert, and we brought the site back up. I am still
waiting on a full report, so that we can figure out what to do for a long term
solution.

As a precaution, I am working on an immediate upgrade path to the latest
version of Mediawiki and its plugins. I will also be working on upgrading
Apache to 2.2.21 on the www and wiki servers.

-Matt
