Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Two XWiki Maven packages, xwiki-platform-oldcore and xwiki-platform-legacy-oldcore, are affected in versions from 9.8-rc-1 up to 16.4.7, from 16.5.0-rc-1 up to 16.10.5, and from 17.0.0-rc-1 up to 17.2.0-rc-1. An attacker with edit rights on a wiki page can create a class that exposes password properties, such as users' password hashes, and any user with an account can then read them under a standard rights setup. Upgrade to 16.4.7, 16.10.5, or 17.2.0-rc-1 as appropriate; no workaround is listed.
