2026-03-05 12:49:02 <Nemo_bis> It now takes perhaps 5 attempts to load a page like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Finland as most thumbnails return HTTP 429
2026-03-05 12:50:35 <Nemo_bis> And that with defaults for <gallery>, loading 40px and 120px thumbs which should be fine https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Common_thumbnail_sizes
2026-03-05 12:50:56 <MatmaRex> Nemo_bis: it's being tweaked now, see the latest at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418323
2026-03-05 12:57:03 <Nemo_bis> Thanks MatmaRex, how wonderful timing of you to post a chart 20 min before I even thought of asking ;) https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418323#11677267

2026-03-05 16:31:52 <Pumbpsi> "Wikis in read only mode". Does anyone know the reason?

2026-03-05 16:33:02 <Pumbpsi> zuzak Thank you
2026-03-05 17:00:51 <Pumbpsi> Is the outage related to those edits? https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges
2026-03-05 17:01:48 <bawolff> Pumbpsi: sort of, those are edits doing cleanup neccessary in order to fix the outage

2026-03-05 20:40:55 <A_smart_kitten> re https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AVillage_pump_%28technical%29#c-FaviFake-20260305201400-Nardog-20260305153100, I don't know which staff member made the copied-over post in question (as I don't use the Discord); but just re "We have no reason to believe...that any...breach of personal information [occurred]" --
2026-03-05 20:41:04 <A_smart_kitten> from the Wayback Machine's copy of the ruwiki userscript that (I believe) got loaded from metawiki's Common.js, FWICS, there is at least one <script> tag that gets added that points to a URL starting with `https://ajax.googleapis.com`.
2026-03-05 20:41:11 <A_smart_kitten> i wouldn't say that i'm an expert on this... but given e.g. tasks like T172065 (that specific one being in the context of Toolforge), wouldn't that sort of thing be considered a leak of end-users' IP addresses/User-Agents/etc to third-party sites (and thus a type of personal-information breach)? /genq
2026-03-05 20:41:12 <stashbot> T172065: Hunt for Toolforge tools that load resources from third party sites - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T172065
2026-03-05 20:41:56 <A_smart_kitten> cc sbassett ^ (not because I think you're the staff member that made the Discord post in question - I have no idea who that would've been - but in case you know who might be able to answer that)
2026-03-05 20:45:05 <MatmaRex> afaik ericmill has posted on discord
2026-03-05 21:50:25 <A_smart_kitten> ericmill (and/or other WMF security folks): FWIW, I appreciate that my question above might require some internal discussion; but if possible, please could I have an acknowledgement that it's been seen by the relevant folks? TIA :)
2026-03-05 22:16:10 <ericmill> @a_smart_kitten - yes, ajax.googleapis.com did get pinged in user sessions of those users who were affected here. It just is, in our judgment, very low severity (especially considering how likely it is that users would have connected to that site at some point in ordinary internet usage).
2026-03-05 22:18:30 <ericmill> As a related side note, we're about to stabilize on a new enforcing CSP, which will include a bunch of commonly used hosts by user scripts but cuts out an immense amount of noise and shady hostnames. (It also omits ajax.googleapis.com, so that will not be usable going forward.)
2026-03-05 22:48:16 <A_smart_kitten> Thanks for the reply ericmill :) [ FWIW, by my skim-reading of what the userscript edited into MediaWiki:Common.js, it seems like it may have also resulted in requests made to pages on e.g. cyclowiki.org - I just used ajax.googleapis.com as the first example. ]
