### Impact Parameters of UI extensions are always interpreted as Velocity code and executed with programming rights. Any user with edit right on any document like the user's own profile can create UI extensions. This allows remote code execution and thereby impacts the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation. To reproduce, edit your user profile with the object editor and add a UIExtension object with the following values: ``` Extension Point ID: org.xwiki.platform.panels.Applications Extension ID: platform.panels.myFakeApplication Extension parameters:  label=I got programming right: $services.security.authorization.hasAccess('programming') target=Main.WebHome targetQueryString= icon=icon:bomb Extension Scope: "Current User". ``` Save the document and open any document. If an application entry with the text "I got programming right: true" is displayed, the attack succeeded, if the code in "label" is displayed literally, the XWiki installation isn'...

### Impact The HTML escaping of escaping tool that is used in XWiki doesn't escape `{`, which, when used in certain places, allows XWiki syntax injection and thereby remote code execution. To reproduce in an XWiki installation, open `<xwiki-host>/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/PanelLayoutUpdate?place=%7B%7B%2Fhtml%7D%7D%7B%7Basync%20async%3Dfalse%7D%7D%7B%7Bvelocity%7D%7D%23evaluate(%24request.eval)%7B%7B%2Fvelocity%7D%7D%7B%7B%2Fasync%7D%7D&eval=Hello%20from%20URL%20Parameter!%20I%20got%20programming%3A%20%24services.security.authorization.hasAccess(%27programming%27)` where `<xwiki-host>` is the URL of your XWiki installation. If this displays `You are not admin on this place Hello from URL Parameter! I got programming: true`, the installation is vulnerable. ### Patches The vulnerability has been fixed on XWiki 14.10.19, 15.5.5, and 15.9 RC1. ### Workarounds Apart from upgrading, there is no generic workaround. However, replacing `$escapetool.html` by `$escapetool.xml` in XWiki documents f...

### Impact Any user who can edit any page like their profile can create a custom skin with a template override that is executed with programming right, thus allowing remote code execution. To reproduce, as a user without edit, script or admin right, add an object of class `XWiki.XWikiSkins` to your profile. Name it whatever you want and set the Base Skin to `flamingo`. Add an object of class `XWikiSkinFileOverrideClass` and set the path to `macros.vm` and the content to: ``` #macro(mediumUserAvatar $username) #resizedUserAvatar($username 50) $services.logging.getLogger('Skin').error("I got programming: $services.security.authorization.hasAccess('programming')") #end ``` Back to your profile, click `Test this skin`. Force a refresh, just in case. If the error "Skin - I got programming: true" gets logged, the installation is vulnerable. ### Patches This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.19, 15.5.4 and 15.10RC1. ### Workarounds We're not aware of any workaround except upgrading. ##...

### Impact By creating a document with a special crafted documented reference and an `XWiki.SchedulerJobClass` XObject, it is possible to execute arbitrary code on the server whenever an admin visits the scheduler page or the scheduler page is referenced, e.g., via an image in a comment on a page in the wiki. To reproduce on an XWiki installation, click on this link to create a new document : `<xwiki-host>/xwiki/bin/view/%22%3E%5D%5D%7B%7B%2Fhtml%7D%7D%7B%7Basync%20context%3D%22request/parameters%22%7D%7D%7B%7Bvelocity%7D%7D%23evaluate%28%24request/eval%29/`. Then, add to this document an object of type `XWiki.SchedulerJobClass`. Finally, as an admin, go to `<xwiki-host>/xwiki/bin/view/Scheduler/?eval=$services.logging.getLogger(%22attacker%22).error(%22Hello%20from%20URL%20Parameter!%20I%20got%20programming:%20$services.security.authorization.hasAccess(%27programming%27)%22)`. If the logs contain `ERROR attacker - Hello from URL Parameter! I got programming: true`, the installation ...

### Impact In multilingual wikis, translations can be edited by any user who has edit right, circumventing the rights that are normally required for authoring translations (script right for user-scope translations, wiki admin for translations on the wiki). This can be exploited for remote code execution if the translation value is not properly escaped where it is used. To reproduce, in a multilingual wiki, as a user without script or admin right, edit a translation of `AppWithinMinutes.Translations` and in the line `platform.appwithinminutes.description=` add `{{async}}{{groovy}}println("Hello from Translation"){{/groovy}}{{/async}}` at the end. Then open the app with in minutes home page (`AppWithinMinutes.WebHome`) in the same locale. If translations are still working and "Hello from Translation" is displayed at the end of the introduction, the installation is vulnerable. ### Patches This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.20, 15.5.4 and 15.10RC1. ### Workarounds We're not aware of ...

### Impact Remote code execution is possible via PDF export templates. To reproduce on an installation, register a new user account with username `PDFClass` if `XWiki.PDFClass` does not exist. On `XWiki.PDFClass`, use the class editor to add a "style" property of type "TextArea" and content type "Plain Text". Then, add an object of class `PDFClass` and set the "style" attribute to `$services.logging.getLogger('PDFClass').error("I got programming: $services.security.authorization.hasAccess('programming')")`. Finally, go to `<host>/xwiki/bin/export/Main/WebHome?format=pdf&pdftemplate=XWiki.PDFClass`. If the logs contain "ERROR PDFClass - I got programming: true", the instance is vulnerable. ### Patches This vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 14.10.20, 15.5.4 and 15.10-rc-1. ### Workarounds If PDF templates are not typically used on the instance, an administrator can create the document `XWiki.PDFClass` and block its edition, after making sure that it does not contain a `style` att...
