Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The xwiki-platform-rendering-macro-include Maven package is vulnerable in versions before 15.0-rc-1. Content included with the include macro runs with the rights of the user including it rather than the rights of the target document's author, so anyone who can edit the included document can act as the author of the including content. Upgrade to 15.0-rc-1 or later; on 14.10.2 and later, the include macro's author setting can force included content to run with the target author's rights, or you can restrict edit access to included documents to trusted users.
