GHSA-J584-J2VJ-3F93
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-20 16:19 – Updated: 2025-02-05 21:20
VLAI
Summary
XWiki Platform allows remote code execution from user account
Details
Impact
When an admin disables a user account, the user's profile is executed with the admin's rights. This allows a user to place malicious code in the user profile before getting an admin to disable the user account.
To reproduce, as a user without script nor programming rights, edit the about section of your user profile and add {{groovy}}services.logging.getLogger("attacker").error("Hello from Groovy!"){{/groovy}}.
As an admin, go to the user profile and click the "Disable this account" button.
Then, reload the page. If the logs show attacker - Hello from Groovy! then the instance is vulnerable.
Patches
This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.21, 15.5.5, 15.10.6 and 16.0.0.
Workarounds
We're not aware of any workaround except upgrading.

Mitigation MIT-1
Architecture and Design
Operation
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Mitigation MIT-17
Architecture and Design
Operation
Strategy: Environment Hardening
Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks [REF-76]. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment. For example, database applications rarely need to run as the database administrator, especially in day-to-day operations.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
