Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The XWiki Platform Old Core package (Maven org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore) is vulnerable to path traversal through the /skin/ action endpoint when running on Jetty 12 or later, in versions before 17.10.5 and from 18.0.0-rc-1 before 18.2.0. A remote attacker can craft a URL to read files that the Jetty process is permitted to access, including XWiki configuration files. Upgrade to 17.10.5 or 18.2.0. Running XWiki on Jetty below version 12 or on Tomcat is reported as not affected.
