XWiki Platform: Remote code execution through space title and Solr space facet

Quick fix

GHSA-xm4h-3jxr-m3c6 — org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

# pom.xml: bump <version>14.10.20</version> for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui

Details

### Impact By creating a document with a specially crafted title, it is possible to trigger remote code execution in the (Solr-based) search in XWiki. This allows any user who can edit the title of a space (all users by default) to execute any Groovy code in the XWiki installation which compromises the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation.

To reproduce, as a user without script nor programming rights, create a document with title `{{/html}}{{async}}{{groovy}}println("Hello from Groovy Title!"){{/groovy}}{{/async}}` and content `Test Document`. Using the search UI, search for `"Test Document"`, then deploy the `Location` facet on the right of the screen, next to the search results. The installation is vulnerable if you see an item such as: ``` Hello from Groovy Title! </a> <div class="itemCount">1</div> </li> </ul> {{/html}} ```

### Patches This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.20, 15.5.4 and 15.10 RC1.
