Machine-written summary

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

xwiki-platform-livetable-ui versions from 6.2.1 before 16.10.17, from 17.0.0-rc-1 before 17.4.9, and from 17.5.0-rc-1 before 17.10.3 are affected. An attacker can make about 768 requests to LiveTableResults to recover a user's password salt and hash one bit at a time, because an earlier fix was incomplete. Upgrade to 16.10.17, 17.4.9, or 17.10.3, or apply the patch manually to the wiki page XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros.
