Descriptions

XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform. 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). Starting in version 4.3-milestone-2 and prior to versions 4.10.20, 15.5.4, and 15.10-rc-1, this can be exploited for remote code execution if the translation value is not properly escaped where it is used. This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.20, 15.5.4 and 15.10RC1. As a workaround, one may restrict edit rights on documents that contain translations.

XWiki Platform es una plataforma wiki genérica. En los wikis multilingües, las traducciones pueden ser editadas por cualquier usuario que tenga derechos de edición, eludiendo los derechos que normalmente se requieren para la autoría de traducciones (derecho de script para traducciones de alcance de usuario, administrador de wiki para traducciones en el wiki). A partir de la versión 4.3-milestone-2 y anteriores a las versiones 4.10.20, 15.5.4 y 15.10-rc-1, esto se puede aprovechar para la ejecución remota de código si el valor de traducción no se escapa correctamente cuando se utiliza. Esto ha sido parcheado en XWiki 14.10.20, 15.5.4 y 15.10RC1. Como workaround, se pueden restringir los derechos de edición de documentos que contienen traducciones.
