GHSA-p5f8-qf24-24cj Velocity execution without script right through tree macro

• Maven org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-index-tree-macro: >= 8.3-rc-1, < 14.10.7 → fixed in 14.10.7 • Maven org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-index-tree-macro: >= 15.0-rc-1, < 15.2-rc-1 → fixed in 15.2-rc-1

Impact It's possible to execute a Velocity script without script right through the document tree. To reproduce: • As a user without script right, create a document, e.g., named Nasty Title • Set the document's title to `$request.requestURI` • Click "Save & View" • Reload the page in the browser The navigation panel displays a document named with the current URL, showing that the Velocity code has been executed even though the user doesn't have script right. Patches This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.7 and 15.2RC1. Workarounds A possible workaround is to: • modify the page XWiki.DocumentTreeMacros • search for the code `#set ($discard = $translatedDocument.setTitle($translatedDocument.title))` • modify it into `#set ($discard = $translatedDocument.setcomment(''))` References • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-20625 • https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/41d7dca2d30084966ca6a7ee537f39ee8354a7e3 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
