Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-36090 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 1.1; fixed in 13.10.5\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 1.1; fixed in 13.10.5\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 14.0; fixed in 14.3-rc-1\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 14.0; fixed in 14.3-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-2022-36090/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-36090/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-36090","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-36090/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-36090","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jgc8-gvcx-9vfx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XWiki Platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Inactive users can bypass authorization checks to enable themselves or perform actions via REST services in XWiki Platform.","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":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-285","name":"Improper Authorization"}],"description":"XWiki Platform Old Core is a core package for XWiki Platform, a generic wiki platform. Prior to versions 13.1.0.5 and 14.3-rc-1, some resources are missing a check for inactive (not yet activated or disabled) users in XWiki, including the REST service. This means a disabled user can enable themselves using a REST call. On the same way some resources handler created by extensions are not protected by default, so an inactive user could perform actions for such extensions. This issue has existed since at least version 1.1 of XWiki for instance configured with the email activation required for new users. Now it's more critical for versions 11.3-rc-1 and later since the maintainers provided the capability to disable user without deleting them and encouraged using that feature. XWiki 14.3-rc-1 and XWiki 13.10.5 contain a patch. There is no workaround for this other than upgrading XWiki.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore Improper Authorization check for inactive users","id":"CVE-2022-36090","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":"xwiki:xwiki","products":["xwiki:xwiki"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2022"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"XWiki Platform Web Templates vulnerable to Missing Authorization, Exposure of Private Personal Information to Unauthorized Actor","id":"CVE-2022-36091"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["13.10.5"],"introduced":["1.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-jgc8-gvcx-9vfx"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["13.10.5"],"introduced":["1.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-oldcore","source":"GHSA-jgc8-gvcx-9vfx"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["14.3-rc-1"],"introduced":["14.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-jgc8-gvcx-9vfx"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["14.3-rc-1"],"introduced":["14.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-oldcore","source":"GHSA-jgc8-gvcx-9vfx"}],"prev":{"headline":"VelaUX APIServer vulnerable to Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay","id":"CVE-2022-36089"},"products":["xwiki-platform"],"published":"2022-09-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"XWiki Platform Eval Injection","id":"CVE-2025-24893","kev_date_added":"2025-10-30","published":"2025-02-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"XWiki Rendering is vulnerable to RCE attacks when processing nested macros","id":"CVE-2025-53836","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"XWiki allows remote code execution through the extension sheet","id":"CVE-2024-55662","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-12"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"XWiki allows remote code execution from account through macro descriptions and XWiki.XWikiSyntaxMacrosList","id":"CVE-2024-55877","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-12"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"XWiki Platform vulnerable to remote code execution from account via SearchSuggestConfigSheet","id":"CVE-2024-37901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-31"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"XWiki programming rights may be inherited by inclusion","id":"CVE-2024-38369","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"XWiki Platform: Remote code execution from account via SearchSuggestSourceSheet","id":"CVE-2024-31465","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-10"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-22","vendors":["xwiki"]},"summary":"Inactive users can bypass authorization checks to enable themselves or perform actions via REST services in XWiki Platform.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-36090/"}
