GHSA-rmxw-c48h-2vf5
XWiki Platform privilege escalation from script right to programming right through title displayer
Quick fix
GHSA-rmxw-c48h-2vf5 — org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-display-api: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
# pom.xml: bump <version>14.10.7</version> for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-display-apiDetails
### Impact
In XWiki Platform, it's possible for a user to write a script in which any velocity content is executed with the right of any other document content author.
To reproduce:
As a user with script but not programming right, create a document with the following content:
``` {{velocity}} #set($main = $xwiki.getDocument('AppWithinMinutes.DynamicMessageTool')) $main.setTitle('$doc.getDocument().getContentAuthor()') $main.getPlainTitle() {{/velocity}} ```
Since this API require programming right and the user does not have it, the expected result is `$doc.document.authors.contentAuthor` (not executed script), unfortunately with the security vulnerability we get `XWiki.superadmin` which shows that the title was executed with the right of the unmodified document.
### Patches
This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.7 and 15.2-RC-1.
### Workarounds
There are no known workarounds for it.
