Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-29205 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 14.8-rc-1\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 14.8-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-2023-29205/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-29205/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-29205","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-29205/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-29205","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XWiki platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via the HTML macro in user profiles, leading to stored XSS and potential account takeover.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"xwiki","vendor":"xwiki"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"XWiki Commons are technical libraries common to several other top level XWiki projects. The HTML macro does not systematically perform a proper neutralization of script-related html tags. As a result, any user able to use the html macro in XWiki, is able to introduce an XSS attack. This can be particularly dangerous since in a standard wiki, any user is able to use the html macro directly in their own user profile page. The problem has been patched in XWiki 14.8RC1. The patch involves the HTML macros and are systematically cleaned up whenever the user does not have the script correct.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting via HTML and raw macro","id":"CVE-2023-29205","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":"xwiki:xwiki","products":["xwiki:xwiki"],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-skin-skinx vulnerable to basic Cross-site Scripting by exploiting JSX or SSX plugins","id":"CVE-2023-29206"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["14.8-rc-1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["14.8-rc-1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki","source":"GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24"}],"prev":{"headline":"URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') in org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore","id":"CVE-2023-29204"},"products":["xwiki-platform"],"published":"2023-04-15","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":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-06","vendors":["xwiki"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via the HTML macro in user profiles, leading to stored XSS and potential account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-29205/"}
