(TikiWiki: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    In numerous files TikiWiki provides an empty sort_mode parameter,
    causing TikiWiki to display additional information, including database
    authentication credentials, in certain error messages. TikiWiki also
    improperly sanitizes the 'url' request variable sent to
    tiki-featured_link.php.
  
Impact :

    An attacker could cause a database error in various pages of a TikiWiki
    instance by providing an empty sort_mode request variable, and gain
    unauthorized access to credentials of the MySQL databases used by
    TikiWiki. An attacker could also entice a user to browse to a specially
    crafted URL that could run scripts in the scope of the user's browser.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
