On April 19, 2023 it was identified that the Graph extension, which uses the older Vega 1 & Vega 2 libraries, had a number of security vulnerabilities.
In the interest of the security of our users, the Graph extension was disabled on Wikimedia wiki's. WMF teams are working quickly on a plan to respond to these vulnerabilities.
//**We recommend that any other third party users of the Graph extension should disable the use of that extension on their wikis.
**//
A configuration change will suppress the exposed raw tags and graph json definition to avoid excess disruption to the end user experience when the extension is disabled. [2] This also provides a tracking category "Category:Pages with disabled graphs" showing the pages that used to contain graphs. Local administrators can localise the name of the category and its description by editing [[MediaWiki:Graph-disabled-category]], [[MediaWiki:Graph-disabled-category-desc]] interface messages on your local wiki.
On Wikimedia projects, graphs created via the extension will remain unavailable. This means that pages that were formerly displaying graphs will now display a small blank area. To help readers understand this situation, communities can now define a brief message that can be displayed to readers in place of each graph until this is resolved. That message can be defined on each wiki at [[MediaWiki:Graph-disabled]] by local administrators.

I know graphs was disable because of a security issue, but an open issue is also needed so that people understand what's going on.
