This is now fixed - confirmed with example mentioned in task description.

@matthiasmullie - Is there a gerrit patch set or security patch we could reference here? Backports to supported release branches or a CVE? The Security-Team can help with the latter if need be. Thanks.

Yes - not sure why gerritbot didn't pick it up, but here's the patch: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/WikibaseMediaInfo/+/558203

Thanks! gerritbot can't currently see security-protected Phab tasks.

So it doesn't look like templates/search/PropertySuggestionsWidget.mustache+dom existed in REL1_34 or previous, so no backports necessary. I'm going make the task public now and request a CVE.
