This page is about the extension itself. For the Wikimedia Foundation CheckUser policy, see m:CheckUser policy.

CheckUser is an extension that allows a user (with the checkuser permission) to check which IP addresses are used by a given username and which usernames are used by a given IP, without having to run queries directly against the database by hand. The extension is running live on all Wikimedia wikis.

Updates will be made according to the needs of Wikimedia Foundation wikis; or where critical vulnerabilities are discovered.

Installation

Download and move the extracted CheckUser folder to your extensions/ directory.
Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/ git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/CheckUser
Only when installing from Git, run Composer to install PHP dependencies, by issuing composer install --no-dev in the extension directory. (See task T173141 for potential complications.)
Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
```
wfLoadExtension( 'CheckUser' );
```
Run the update script which will automatically create the necessary database tables that this extension needs.
Configure as required.
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Using MediaWiki-Docker

Follow the steps in MediaWiki-Docker/Extension/CheckUser to install this extension inside a MediaWiki Docker instance.

Configuration

This tool copies recent changes data to separate tables, and adds to that when new entries are added. If $wgPutIPinRC is set to false, the copied data will not contain the associated IP address. However, entries added after installation of this extension will contain the IP address.

After installation of this extension, you can reduce $wgRCMaxAge to make recentchanges shorter without affecting checkuser. Use $wgCUDMaxAge to set how far back checkuser data can go, in seconds.

The CheckUser-specific setting $wgCheckUserCIDRLimit determines the largest range that can be checked in a single check. Its format is the same as $wgBlockCIDRLimit . The default limit is /19 for IPv6 checks and /16 for IPv4 checks.

To allow this tool to log successful and failed login attempts as well as logouts, set $wgCheckUserLogLogins to true. If you have bot accounts on your wiki, setting $wgCheckUserLogSuccessfulBotLogins to false will skip logging successful login attempts to bot accounts.

MediaWiki version:

≥ 1.43

If the extension is installed on a multi-wiki install, then you should set $wgVirtualDomainsMapping for the virtual-checkuser-global to point to a central database table. Setting this will ensure that the central index tables are actually on a central DB, and therefore the GlobalBlocking global autoblocks and GUC work. After doing this, you will need to run update.php to create the tables on the central wiki.

Troubleshooting Special:GlobalContributions functionality

If Special:GlobalContributions is not returning revisions as expected (e.g. you have revisions on another wiki that you can view on that wiki), a misconfiguration may be causing an internal failure that isn't user-facing (as it cannot be user resolved). Check that:

Your user has a central account and that their accounts on the affected wiki are linked. This can be checked at Special:MergeAccount.
The affected wiki is known to the wiki farm. This is defined in the sites table and wikis can be added to this table via the addSite maintenance script. You'll need to ensure that the optional parameters pagepath and filepath are filled out (eg. php ./maintenance/run.php ./maintenance/addSite.php $wikiName wiki --pagepath https://hostname/wiki/\$1 --filepath https://hostname/w/\$1), as Special:GlobalContributions uses these to generate API queries and links.
The central database is set with virtual-checkuser-global (eg. $wgVirtualDomainsMapping['virtual-checkuser-global'] = [ 'db' => $wiki ];) and that the cuci_temp_edit table is recording revisions from the affected wiki.
If necessary, cross-domain cookies should be enabled as the centralauth token must work across both wikis.

Granting right to use CheckUser

To grant the right to use Special:CheckUser, Special:Investigate and Special:CheckUserLog, a user with user rights management must go to Special:UserRights and enter the user's name in the box, then select the option "checkuser". Once this is done, the aforementioned special pages will show up in Special:SpecialPages page for that user.

To allow users to access the IP addresses of temporary accounts , they should be granted the checkuser-temporary-account right.

To give sysops all the rights this extension provides, put the following into LocalSettings.php:

$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['checkuser'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['checkuser-log'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['investigate'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['checkuser-temporary-account'] = true;

To only allow the adding and removing of the checkuser permission, use the following instead:

$wgAddGroups['sysop'][] = 'checkuser';
$wgRemoveGroups['sysop'][] = 'checkuser';

Configuration

Configuration settings in extension.json
parameter	default	comment
`$wgCUDMaxAge`	`7776000`	How long to keep CU data (in seconds)? (default = 90 days)
`$wgCheckUserMaxBlocks`	`200`	Mass block limits
`$wgCheckUserForceSummary`	`false`	Set this to true if you want to force checkusers into giving a reason for each check they do through Special:CheckUser. (Not very useful, given that checkusers could simply give a summary such as "they need to be checked" or "I feel like it" and the software would not know.)
`$wgCheckUserCIDRLimit`	`[ 'IPv4' => 16, 'IPv6' => 19 ]`	Smallest CIDR value that can be used in any individual range check
`$wgCUPublicKey`	`''`	Public key to encrypt private data that may need to be read later. Generate a public key with something like: `openssl genrsa -out cu.key 2048; openssl rsa -in cu.key -pubout > cu.pub` and paste the contents of `cu.pub` here Used with an associated private key to encrypt certain data that is not shown to CUs but stored in the cu_changes or cu_private_event table. Currently this is only the recipients of emails. Without a valid public key the data will not be stored.
`$wgCheckUserCAMultiLock`	`false`	This can be used to add a link to Special:MultiLock by CentralAuth to the Special:CheckUser's mass block form. This requires the CentralAuth extension to be installed on the wiki. To enable this, set this to an array with a central wiki's database name and an array with the name(s) of the global group(s) to add the link for. For example: $wgCheckUserCAMultiLock = [ 'centralDB' => 'metawiki', 'groups' => [ 'steward' ] ];
`$wgCheckUserCAtoollink`	`false`	Since 77360f1cf1d2. This adds a link to central wiki Special:CentralAuth to the Special:CheckUser's "Get users" results. This requires the CentralAuth extension to be installed on the wiki. To enable this, set this with a central wiki's database name. For example: $wgCheckUserCAtoollink = 'metawiki';
`$wgCheckUserGBtoollink`	`false`	Since 77360f1cf1d2. This adds a link to local or central wiki Special:GlobalBlock to the Special:CheckUser's "Get users" results. This requires the GlobalBlocking extension to be installed on the wiki. To enable this, if a $wgConf is configured, set this to an array with a central wiki's database name and an array with the name(s) of the local (or global if you have CentralAuth installed) group(s) to add the link for. For example: $wgCheckUserGBtoollink = [ 'centralDB' => 'metawiki', 'groups' => [ 'steward', 'staff' ] ];
`$wgCheckUserEnableSpecialInvestigate` (1.35-1.43)	`false` (<=1.39) `true` (1.40+)	Since 57dcfe46d2e4. This enables Special:Investigate, an updated version of Special:CheckUser that allows checking for multiple user accounts and IP addresses within one investigation.
`$wgCheckUserLogLogins`	`false`	Whether CheckUser should log login and logout attempts (both successful and not).
`$wgCheckUserLogSuccessfulBotLogins`	`true`	Whether CheckUser should store successful login attempts to accounts with the bot user group if $wgCheckUserLogLogins is set to `true`. Only is used if $wgCheckUserLogLogins is `true`
`$wgCheckUserMaximumRowCount`	`5000`	The maximum number of results that can be returned by Special:CheckUser. Before MediaWiki 1.39, in the 'Get edits' and 'Get IPs' results having over 5,000 results would return the results in a different format. From MediaWiki 1.39 this is the maximum number of results to show by page and more can be generated using the paging links
`$wgCheckUserInvestigateMaximumRowCount`	`25000`	Similar to $wgCheckUserMaximumRowCount, but for Investigate
`$wgCheckUserTemporaryAccountMaxAge` (1.40+)	`86400`	The number of seconds for which the temporary account API response is fresh.
`$wgCheckUserEventTablesMigrationStage` (1.40+)	`3` (1.40) `259` (1.41) `769` (1.42-1.43) `768` (1.43)	Used to control the migration stage of log events stored in cu_changes to the new cu_log_event and cu_private_event tables. Is temporary and will be removed once migration is complete.
`$wgCheckUserClientHintsEnabled` (1.41+)	`true`	Used to control whether client hints should be collected and displayed in results by CheckUser.
`$wgCheckUserClientHintsSpecialPages` (1.41+)	`[ "CreateAccount", "Emailuser", "PasswordReset", "Userlogin", "Userlogout" ]`	The list of SpecialPages where CheckUser will request client hints if `$wgCheckUserClientHintsEnabled` is `true`.
`$wgCheckUserClientHintsActionQueryParameter` (1.41+)	`[ "history" ]`	The list of "action" values in the query parameters where client hints will be requested.
`$wgCheckUserClientHintsHeaders` (1.41+)	`{ "Sec-CH-UA": "", "Sec-CH-UA-Arch": "architecture", "Sec-CH-UA-Bitness": "bitness", "": "brands", "Sec-CH-UA-Form-Factor": "", "Sec-CH-UA-Full-Version-List": "fullVersionList", "Sec-CH-UA-Mobile": "mobile", "Sec-CH-UA-Model": "model", "Sec-CH-UA-Platform": "platform", "Sec-CH-UA-Platform-Version": "platformVersion", "Sec-CH-UA-WoW64": ""`}	The list of client hint types that will be requested. Keys represent the client hint values requested using the Accept-CH header. Values represent the equivalent name when requesting them from the JS client side client hints API.
`$wgCheckUserClientHintsUnsetHeaderWhenPossible` (1.41+)	`true`	If `true`, the server will send an empty Accept-CH header when the user is viewing a page which does not need client hints data.
`$wgCheckUserGlobalContributionsCentralWikiId` (1.44+)	`null`	A string representing the name of the wiki to designate as the "central" wiki for Special:GlobalContributions. Setting this will redirect all other wiki's Special:GlobalContributions page to the central wiki's instead.

Special:CheckUser usage

Basic interface

Go to Special:CheckUser.
In the user field, type in the username (without the User: prefix), IP address, or CIDR range.
- IP: any IPv4 or IPv6 address.
- CIDR: you can check a range of IP addresses by appending the CIDR prefix. The CIDR prefix value for IPv4 can be between 16-32 and the value for IPv6 can be between 19-128. The smaller number for both ranges can be changed using the configuration variable $wgCheckUserCIDRLimit. For notation, see Help:Range blocks .
- XFF: you can check a client IP address provided by X-Forwarded-For headers by appending /xff (for example, 127.0.0.1/xff).
Select the information you want to retrieve.
- Get IP addresses - returns IP addresses used by a registered user.
- Get actions - returns all edits and logged actions made by users using an IP address or range specified in the target field, or if the target is a user all edits and logged actions by that user.
- Get users - returns user accounts that have edited from an IP or range.
In the "Reason:" field, type in the reason you are accessing the confidential data. Try to succinctly summarise the situation (for example, "cross-wiki spam"); this will be logged in a log visible only to users with the checkuser-log permission.

Information returned

A typical entry in the CheckUser results for a user summary ("get users") is as follows:

Example (talk | contribs | block) (Check) (20:11, 21 December 2024 -- 20:12, 21 December 2024) [5]
1. 127.0.0.37 XFF: 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.5

Example user agent

This is formatted to fit a lot of information into a format that can very easily be listed and skimmed, but is difficult to read unless you know what the information provided is. The information is laid out as follows:

username (user links) (time period when they edited from the given IP or range) [number of edits from the IP or range]
1. IP address edited from XFF: XFF information provided (can be spoofed)

Each IP/XFF combination used to edit is listed, in order of use.

The last ten user agents (browser, operating system, system language, and versions) for each user for edits made in the IP or range are listed afterwards.

XFF Format

XFF (X-Forwarded-For) headers indicate the series of IP addresses used from the user's computer (first) to the last proxy server. In case of Wikimedia, the last proxy server is one of the Wikimedia proxies (listed under $wgCdnServersNoPurge in the Wikimedia configuration file).

In this example:

aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa XFF: 10.4.46.42, 127.0.0.1, aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa, 208.80.152.46

the first two addresses (10.4.46.42, 127.0.0.1) are private to the originating network and can't be reached directly from the public Internet,
the third address (aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa) is the "public face" of the editor, usually a broadband or dial-up ISP, a company gateway, (but possibly an anonymizer or a malware-compromised server),
the last address (208.80.152.46) is one of the Wikimedia squids (sq36.wikimedia.org).

MediaWiki configuration settings $wgUsePrivateIPs , $wgCdnServers , $wgCdnServersNoPurge and extensions using the IsTrustedProxy hook (such as Extension:TrustedXFF ) change the way an actual IP address used to attribute edits is selected.

Personal tool links

When you get results from Special:CheckUser you can add personal user tool links via the following interface messages:

MediaWiki:checkuser-userlinks-ip for IP addresses (for example m:MediaWiki:checkuser-userlinks-ip)
MediaWiki:Checkuser-userlinks for registered users (for example m:MediaWiki:Checkuser-userlinks)
MediaWiki:checkuser-toollinks for IPs in the 'Get IP Addresses' check type (for example m:MediaWiki:checkuser-toollinks)
MediaWiki:Checkuser-cidr-tool-links for IP ranges produced by the CIDR calculator present at the bottom of all Special:CheckUser pages. Interface message added in 1.41.

Special:Investigate usage

Basic usage

Go to Special:Investigate.
In the Usernames and IP addresses field, type in up to 10 targets, which may be usernames (without the User: prefix), IP addresses, or CIDR ranges.
In the Reason field, enter the reason you are accessing the confidential data, as described in the Special:CheckUser instructions above; this will be logged in a log visible only to users with the checkuser-log permission.

Screenshots
Input form
Account information tab
IPs and user agents tab
Timeline tab

For advanced feature usage, see Help:Special Investigate.

Customizing tool links

As with Special:CheckUser, links to external tools can be customized.

The links are defined in the checkuser-investigate-compare-toollinks message. This message is parsed to find links, which are added to the menu in the IPs & User agents tab.

Special:IPContributions usage

This page is only available if temporary accounts are known on a wiki (See MainConfigSchema::AutoCreateTempUser for more information). It's used to examine the temporary accounts associated with an IP.

To use this page, you must have the right to view IP addresses (checkuser-temporary-account) and have enabled the preference to view IP addresses (on Special:Preferences, under "Temporary account IP reveal").

Basic usage

Go to Special:IPContributions.
In the IP address or range: field, input an IP (IPv4 or IPv6) or CIDR range.
Adjust parameters as necessary and submit a search. This action will be logged to the checkuser-temporary-account log which will be visible to users with the checkuser-temporary-account-log right.

Special: GlobalContributions usage

This page is only available if temporary accounts are known on a wiki (See MainConfigSchema::AutoCreateTempUser for more information) and Extension:GlobalPreferences is enabled. Given an IP, it aggregates all revisions from temporary accounts across all wikis within the wiki farm that the user has the right to see.

To use this page, you must have the right to view IP addresses (checkuser-temporary-account) and have enabled the global preference to view IP addresses (on Special:GlobalPreferences, under "Temporary account IP reveal").

Basic usage

Go to Special:GlobalContributions
In the IP address or range: field, input an IP (IPv4 or IPv6) or CIDR range.
Adjust parameters as necessary and submit a search. This action will be logged to the checkuser-temporary-account log which will be visible to users with the checkuser-temporary-account-log right.
Alongside local results, results will be returned for wikis on which you also have the checkuser-temporary-account right.

Example results

Showing IPs for temporary accounts

MediaWiki version:

≥ 1.40

The CheckUser extension will show since MediaWiki 1.40 a button that is displayed next to temporary account user links which allows the revealing of their IP address.

This functionality is available exclusively to users with the checkuser-temporary-account privilege, granting them the ability to view the IP addresses that are linked to temporary accounts. To access this information, the Enable revealing IP addresses for temporary accounts feature must be enabled on the user's Special:Preferences page.

These buttons will appear wherever user links are shown for a temporary account, such as when viewing page histories or in Special:Contributions. However, these will not be shown on Special:CheckUser, Special:Investigate or Special:InvestigateBlock.

APIs

CheckUser and CheckUserLog API

CheckUser provides an API that allows access to the information shown on Special:CheckUser and Special:CheckUserLog. These two APIs work fairly similarly to the special pages, but the reason for a check using the checkuser API is prefixed with "API:" to indicate they were made using the API. Example usages of these APIs are shown below.

CheckUser API

api.php?action=query&list=checkuser&curequest=userips&cutarget=Jimbo_Wales
api.php?action=query&list=checkuser&curequest=edits&cutarget=127.0.0.1/16&xff=1&cureason=Some_check

CheckUserLog API

api.php?action=query&list=checkuserlog&culuser=WikiSysop&cullimit=25
api.php?action=query&list=checkuserlog&cultarget=127.0.0.1&culfrom=20111015230000

Temporary Account Reveal API

MediaWiki version:

≥ 1.40

Usage

The TemporaryAccountHandler class offers API endpoints for retrieving the IP addresses associated with temporary user accounts. To access this information, the Enable revealing IP addresses for temporary accounts feature must be enabled on the user's Special:Preferences page.

API endpoint

GET /rest.php/checkuser/v0/temporaryaccount/{name} where {name} is the user name you want to look up

Response

If the request is successful, the API will respond with a JSON object containing the following fields:

Name	Type	Description
`ips`	`string[]`	IPs of the given temporary account

If the request fails, the API will respond with an appropriate error code and message.

Example request

GET /rest.php/checkuser/v0/temporaryaccount/*Unregistered%202

Example response

{"ips": [ "114.127.69.62" , "212.47.235.82" , "212.47.235.81" ]}

TemporaryAccountRevisionHandler

The TemporaryAccountRevisionHandler class offers API endpoints for viewing the IP associated with a revision for temporary accounts. You can specify one or multiple revision IDs in the query string.

API endpoint

GET /rest.php/checkuser/v0/temporaryaccount/*Unregistered%203/revisions/{revisionId} where {revisionId} is the revision ID(s) you want to look up separated by the | character.

Response

If the request is successful, the API will respond with a JSON object containing the following fields:

Name	Type	Description
`ips`	`dictionary`	The revision ID as the key and the associated IP address as the value.

If the request fails, the API will respond with an appropriate error code and message.

Example request

GET /rest.php/checkuser/v0/temporaryaccount/*Unregistered%203/revisions/31

Example response

{"ips":{"31":"40.175.36.227"}}

Example request with multiple revisions

GET /w/rest.php/checkuser/v0/temporaryaccount/*Unregistered%205/revisions/194|193

Example response

{"ips":{"194":"40.175.36.227","193":"1.2.3.4"}}
