Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Versions of the xwiki-platform-search-ui package (Maven org.xwiki.platform) before 14.10.15, from 15.0-rc-1 up to 15.5.2, and 15.6-rc-1 up to 15.7-rc-1 are affected by remote code execution through the search administration page. Any user who can edit a wiki page, such as their own profile, can inject script macros, including Groovy macros, that run on the server and affect the whole instance. Upgrade to 14.10.15, 15.5.2, or 15.7-rc-1. The source's workaround is to manually apply the patch to the XWiki.SearchAdmin page.
