Security reminder: If you have PHP's register_globals option set, you must
turn it off. MediaWiki will not work with it enabled.
+== MediaWiki 1.25.4 ==
+
+This is a security and maintenance release of the MediaWiki 1.25 branch.
+
+=== Changes since 1.25.3 ===
+* (T117899) SECURITY: $wgArticlePath can no longer be set to relative paths
+ that do not begin with a slash. This enabled trivial XSS attacks.
+ Configuration values such as "http://my.wiki.com/wiki/$1" are fine, as are
+ "/wiki/$1". A value such as "$1" or "wiki/$1" is not and will now throw an
+ error.
+* (T119309) SECURITY: Use hash_equals() for edit token comparison
+* (T118032) SECURITY: Don't allow cURL to interpret POST parameters starting
+ with '@' as file uploads
+* (T115522) SECURITY: Passwords generated by User::randomPassword() can no
+ longer be shorter than $wgMinimalPasswordLength
+* (T97897) SECURITY: Improve IP parsing and trimming. Previous behavior could
+ result in improper blocks being issued
+* (T109724) SECURITY: Special:MyPage, Special:MyTalk, Special:MyContributions
+ and related pages no longer use HTTP redirects and are now redirected by
+ MediaWiki
+* (T103237) $wgUseGzip had no effect when using file cache.
+* (T114606) mw.notify was not correctly fixed to the page if
+ initialized while not at the top of the page.
+* Fix issue that breaks HHVM Repo Authorative mode.
