Hi,

WMU (wikia mini upload, the "new! upload images" link in edit form on
Monaco) extension has a bug: Once the image has been uploaded, it lets
you to specify the destination filename, and you can erase the
extension of the image and then upload an image without extension.
This must not be allowed: <http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Ejemplo>

When fixing this issue, please have in mind to check that the
extension remains unchanged and not only check if
substring(filename.length-4, 1) = ".". I was able to upload a CSS file
uploaded as a test.ods and then changed to test.css:
<http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Test.css>

Seeing that, i guess this extension could have other several security issues.

Also, it doesn't allow to select a license (other than the CC-BY-SA),
nor input a description of the file, adding extra work to sysops to
maintain those files uploaded.

Reards,
