An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-23621 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 12.10.9\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 12.10.9\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.0.0; fixed in 13.4.3\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.0.0; fixed in 13.4.3\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.6-rc-1; fixed in 13.7-rc-1\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.6-rc-1; fixed in 13.7-rc-1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23621/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23621/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-23621","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23621/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-23621","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2jhm-qp48-hv5j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XWiki Platform","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Users with SCRIPT rights can read sensitive configuration files from the web application directory due to missing authorization checks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"xwiki","vendor":"xwiki"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-552","name":"Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties"},{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it.
