Patches The problem has been patched in XWiki 13.10.8, 14.6RC1 and 14.4.2. Workarounds The only workarounds for this are: • use an authenticator which does interpret the login as a reference to a document • using a different database than PostgreSQL • upgrade XWiki References https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-19886 For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: • Open an issue in Jira XWiki.org • Email us at Security Mailing List
