[Mediawiki-l] bug in an extension

[Helmut Hullen]

Hallo,

I've just tried to edit one of my wiki pages and have got the message

Detected bug in an extension! Hook ConfirmEditHooks::confirmEditMerged  
has invalid call signature; Parameter 1 to  
ConfirmEditHooks::confirmEditMerged() expected to be a reference, value  
given

Backtrace:

#0 /path/to/mediawiki-1.17.0/includes/EditPage.php(999): wfRunHooks('EditFilterMerge...', Array)
#1 /path/to/mediawiki-1.17.0/includes/EditPage.php(2656): EditPage->internalAttemptSave(false, false)

#6 /path/to/mediawiki-1.17.0/index.php(114): MediaWiki->performRequestForTitle(Object(Title), Object(Article), Object(OutputPage), Object(User), Object(WebRequest))
#7 {main}

(first I had been asked to edit "LocalSettings.php":

Set
  $wgShowExceptionDetails = true;
at the bottom of LocalSettings.php to show detailed debugging  
information.)

Two days ago a user with a strange looking login name had subscribed.

What goes wrong? Does some bad guy use a backdoor?


Viele Gruesse!
