I am just a beginner with PHP and tried to find the XSS vulnerability here. Is 
it really XSS than can be used from outside without write access to the wiki 
page (by attaching some argument to the address)?
Or is it something "only" a user of the wiki can utilise?  If it is the 
latter, I think all (or most of the) plugins that embed some media files / 
player from other sites (like youtube, slideshare, etc.) are vulnerable, too.

Yours
