The extension Lockdown will do that for you. Add the extension, and then do something like this:
$wgSpecialPageLockdown['Statistics'] = array('sysop');
$wgSpecialPageLockdown['Version'] = array('sysop');
$wgSpecialPageLockdown['Export'] = array('sysop');
...
This will be a long list, and it will change a bit from version to version of MediaWiki, as special pages come and go.
