Deep PHP hoodoo. How detailed do you you want the answer?

Detailed but not too intense, I guess.

What exactly was the bug?
Without a PHP background, explaining the flaw is difficult; it requires context that is not straightforward to simplify. The bug was under the hood in MediaWiki, where an oversight was made inserting new code elsewhere. In the interest of transparency, the "exact" answer to your question is provided in the link. The more general answer of "Deep PHP hoodoo" usually works concisely enough when we explain such fixes, but I didn't want to leave you thirsting for more information if it was in your wheelhouse.
