  • CVSS score 10.0 (7.0 or more) and EPSS 0.74 (0.1 or more): a high score and a real chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

XWiki Platform's xwiki-platform-uiextension-api package is vulnerable in versions before 14.10.19, from 15.0-rc-1 before 15.5.4, and from 15.6-rc-1 before 15.9-rc-1. Any user with edit rights on a document, such as their own profile, can create UI extensions whose parameters are executed as Velocity code with programming rights, allowing remote code execution and full compromise of the wiki. Upgrade to 14.10.19, 15.5.4, 15.9-rc-1 or later; the source lists no workaround other than upgrading.
