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-2023-29209 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-notification-activitymacro (Maven): affected from 10.9; fixed in 13.10.11\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-notification-activitymacro (Maven): affected from 10.9; fixed in 13.10.11\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-notification-activitymacro (Maven): affected from 14.0-rc-1; fixed in 14.4.7\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-notification-activitymacro (Maven): affected from 14.0-rc-1; fixed in 14.4.7\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-notification-activitymacro (Maven): affected from 14.5; fixed in 14.10\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-notification-activitymacro (Maven): affected from 14.5; fixed in 14.10\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-2023-29209/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-29209/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-29209","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-29209/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-29209","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9pc2-x9qf-7j2q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XWiki platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with view rights can execute arbitrary code via the legacy notification activity macro, leading to full system compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"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-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"},{"id":"CWE-95","name":"Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code"}],"description":"XWiki Commons are technical libraries common to several other top level XWiki projects. Any user with view rights on commonly accessible documents including the legacy notification activity macro can execute arbitrary Groovy, Python or Velocity code in XWiki leading to full access to the XWiki installation.

The vulnerability can be exploited via every wiki page that is editable including the user's profile, but also with just view rights using the HTMLConverter that is part of the CKEditor integration which is bundled with XWiki.
