I would like to announce the release of MediaWiki 1.17.2. One security issue was discovered.

Roan Kattouw discovered an issue with the API, where prop=revisions would expose deleted text to unprivileged users through cache pollution.

For more details, see https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33117
