Description

Impact Protected pages are listed when requesting the REST endpoints `/rest/wikis/[wikiName]/pages` even if the user doesn't have view rights on them. It's particularly true if the entire wiki is protected with "Prevent unregistered user to view pages": the endpoint would still list the pages of the wiki (actually it only impacts the main wiki due to XWIKI-22639). Patches The problem has been patched in XWiki 15.10.14, 16.4.6, 16.10.0RC1. In those versions the endpoint can still be requested but the result is filtered out based on pages rights. Workarounds There's no workaround except upgrading or applying manually the changes of the commits (see references) in `xwiki-platform-rest-server` and recompiling / rebuilding it.
