Special:PageStatistics?unreview=<ts> rewrote the acting user\x27s wl_notificationtimestamp on any GET with no token check, and wrote the timestamp value unvalidated. Require the user\x27s edit token and embed it in the ReviewHandler right-click fallback URL.

Summary
Special:PageStatistics?unreview=<timestamp>callsReviewHandler::resetNotificationTimestamp(), which performs a rawUPDATE watchlist SET wl_notificationtimestamp = ...for the acting user — with no token check, triggered by a plain GET. Any page, link, or<img>tag can silently rewrite the victim's review timestamps. The timestamp value was also written to the DB completely unvalidated.Fix:
SpecialPageStatistics::execute()requires the user's edit token (matchEditToken) before performing the unreview write, throwingPermissionsError('editmywatchlist')otherwise.ReviewHandler::getTemplate()embeds the token in the right-click fallback URL so the normal UI path keeps working.resetNotificationTimestamp, since that method is being rewritten anyway.)Verification
php -lclean on php:7.4-cli and php:8.2-cli for both files.PermissionsError(NEW); tokened request → write succeeds; tokened request with malicious timestamp payload → rejected.Closes SLOP-394.
