Machine-written summary

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

XWiki Platform's xwiki-platform-localization-source-wiki package is vulnerable in versions from 4.3-milestone-2 up to 14.10.20, from 15.0-rc-1 up to 15.5.4, and from 15.6-rc-1 up to 15.10-rc-1. Any user with edit right can change translations, bypassing the script or admin rights normally needed, which can lead to remote code execution where translation values are not escaped. Upgrade to 14.10.20, 15.5.4, 15.10-rc-1 or later. The only workaround listed is restricting edit right on documents that contain translations.
