In order to bundle AbuseFilter, we have to provide an optimal
configuration for sysadmins. This patch aims to provide such
configuration, and of course it's open to changes.
Changed values:
*Grant abusefilter-view-private to admins. This is mostly for
redundancy-safety (they already have -modify)
*Grant modify-restricted to admins (see T200032)
*Disable the 'degroup' action. This is really dangerous, not ideal to be
enabled by default.
*Grant the abusefilter-revert right to sysops. This is similar to
assigning the modify-restricted right in its rationale.
*Add abusefilter-log-private to viewrestrictedlogs grant. This right
should go together with abusefilter-view-private. (T226987)
*Remove abusefilter-revert from the rollback grant, as that right is
for reverting AF actions and has nothing to do with rollbacks.
This mostly copies the config of WMF production: degrouping is already
disabled there, and modify-restricted should
be assigned to sysops on WMF wikis as well. The assignment of the
abusefilter-view-private and abusefiliter-revert rights is handled in
I09cb462312c5bbc71ee3a8f0fbd91357908130d4 (parent patch) to keep the
status quo.
NOTE: this patch should be *deployed* together with the config patch to
avoid discontinuities. Thus, please ONLY provide a virtual +2 using a
+1, and I'll coordinate the +2 with a deployer.

This allows us to extract yet another static method from the AbuseFilter

case could be Ia5fd4f0b35fcabf045a7b49fa40fa85b72c92544.

As for all mostly unused consequences, blockautopromote has a couple of
major problems: first, it blocked the status for a random time between 3
and 7 days, which to me makes no sense at all (is it some sort of
casino?), and this patch fixes it to 5 days. Second, nothing was logged,
not the blocking nor the unblocking. Here I'm adding a LogHandler for
two new sub-actions of 'rights' to keep track of both action.

Currently we strongly abuse (pardon the pun) the AbuseFilter class: its
purpose should be to hold static functions intended as generic utility
functions (e.g. to format messages, determine whether a filter is global
etc.), but we actually use it for all methods related to running filters.
This patch creates a new class, AbuseFilterRunner, containing all such
methods, which have been made non-static. This leads to several
improvements (also for related methods and the parser), and opens the
way to further improve the code.
Aside from making the code prettier, less global and easier to test,
this patch could also produce a performance improvement, although I
don't have tools to measure that.
Also note that many public methods have been removed, and almost any of
them has been made protected; a couple of them (the ones used from outside)
are left for back-compat, and will be removed in the future.

A very simple fix for some old entries imploded with '\n' instead of
"\n". As for other scripts, this extends LoggedUpdateMaintenance but it
includes a dry run option to be tested, and a subsequent patch (to be
merged after testing) will add it to update.php.

Daimona has been an extraordinary maintainer of this tool and has also
implemented new features on Abuse Filter, so I guess it is just and fair
to include his name to this list.
Hyperlink is because `Daimona Eaytoy` is not a real name, according to
his mediawiki.org userpage (can be removed if required; the law accepts
authorship attributed to pseudonyms).
In addition, the list of authors has been sorted alphabetically by name.
If you prefer to order it by family name instead, please let me know.

Added cachingParser back to *all* the parser tests, fixed a couple of
differences with the normal parser, and added a couple of tests so that
any cachingParser-related file has 100% coverage. Also move the remaining
get_matches tests inside parserTests, and specify the parser used in case of failure.
This also adds a new base class for parser-related tests with a couple
of util methods.

The reasoning is similar to the one of the parent patch (Ia5c477edc8733bb1994cb6d01e1371ed496c8bcb). Plus, it records runtime metrics on action different than edits, as there's no reason not to do it.
No performance issues in production.

This variable was introduced to selectively enable profiling because
stats recording was bad for performance. Nowadays, stats are recorded in
a deferredupdate and don't harm performance anymore. Thus, this variable
can be removed and profiling be enabled by default.

This is an old leftover, used to add global JS variables in a convoluted
way: using a hook and a total of 3 static properties. We can safely
remove all of this and just call OutputPage::addJsConfigVars, which BTW
is already called where we need it.

For several reasons:
*We're not really checking permissions (and the hook previously used is
meant to be used in such case)
*We'll show a cleaner error message (i.e. without the "You do not have
permission..." part)
*Filtering will happen closer to the actual move

While editing filters, sometimes it happen that you make some change,
forget about it and then reload/close the page, and no warnings will be
issued. This patch makes use of the core module used for normal page
editing to display a warning if trying to leave a filter editing page
with any unsaved change (both to the filter pattern or other form
elements).

This is a follow-up to Ic3bc6e36506973b19a9b1bcecbc1a5080faed2ec. I
believe it's important to specify how many recent actions we're looking
at, and I also think it's not nice to rely on a variable amount of
actions to determine whether a filter should be throttled. Also, require
a $group parameter in filterUsedKey (we always pass one, and there's no
reason not to).

For the docs part: make it clear how things work there. For the code
part, these are mostly style changes: shorter variable names, no
unnecessary parameters, make the method private, use clearer variable
names.

Long (sigh) explanation in T203587#4569698. Also, simplified the way
TagMultiselect are generated, this one and the one for change tags.
This new selector is back-compat both with the old textarea and the OOUI
checkboxMultiselect; actually, this one is //fully// compatible with the
old textarea.
Add validation for throttle parameters and unit tests for validation
(split from I976c95658cddb2585910b6f8a5f047aadc4e4d47).
Added a trim when retrieving throttle identifier to allow syntax like
'ip, user'.
Improved the message shown on history.
Re-added the maintenance script to clean DB.
As I wrote in the task, a review by two other people would be great, at
least for the maintenance script (it could potentially break the DB).

You can now select a custom message to be displayed for disallowing a edit
the same way as for warn mode. This can be the same or a totally different
message.
This also solves the usecase, when a edit filter is set to warn AND disallow,
to be able to show the user a custom message, but the generic is shown
on the second try (disallow). Now it can be only set to disallow.

Seccheck is currently being executed as non-voting, but it always
succeeds because AbuseFilter is not requiring it in composer. Instead,
let's add it: tests will start to fail, but we'll be able to see how
things are going with it. As a bonus, remove the mediawiki.api.parse
module, which is deprecated in 1.32 and replaced by mediawiki.api
(already loaded).

Replace the conditions textarea with Ace editor for editing and testing
filter. This uses a soft dependency on CodeEditor; if the latter isn't
installed, the classic textarea is used. The user is still able to
switch between the editors on the go; the new buttons may look a bit
ugly now, but after switching to OOUI they should get much better.
Finally, added a custom syntax highlight for AbuseFilter rules.

This patch introduces a config variable for the range block sizes.
It changes the default IPv6 block size from /16 to /19 using the
same reasoning as Ia25e156fd8234519c4d74f1d41d93f94a313ce14
Using a config var (as opposed to hardcoded range size) allows
future changes proposed in T179454 to make the range size vary
for different IPs, based on the actual subnet they belong to.

This allows filters using `action='upload'` to use the variables
`summary`, `new_wikitext` and several others that previously were only
provided when editing pages (`action='edit'`).
This is achieved using the new UploadVerifyUpload hook, introduced in
MediaWiki core in change Ie68801b307de8456e1753ba54a29c34c8063bc36.
`action='upload'` is now only used when publishing an upload, and not
for uploads to stash. A new `action='stashupload'` is introduced,
which is used for all uploads, including uploads to stash. This
behaves like `action='upload'` used to, and only provides file
metadata variables.
Filter authors should use `action='stashupload'` when a file can be
checked based only on the file contents, and `action='upload'` only
when the wikitext edit needs to be examined too.
