Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-37899 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.10.3; fixed in 14.10.21\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.10.3; fixed in 14.10.21\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.4.7; fixed in 14.10.21\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 13.4.7; fixed in 14.10.21\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 15.0-rc-1; fixed in 15.5.5\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 15.0-rc-1; fixed in 15.5.5\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 15.6-rc-1; fixed in 15.10.6\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 15.6-rc-1; fixed in 15.10.6\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 16.0.0-rc-1; fixed in 16.0.0\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (Maven): affected from 16.0.0-rc-1; fixed in 16.0.0\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-2024-37899/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37899/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-37899","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37899/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-37899","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j584-j2vj-3f93"],"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 can inject Groovy code into user profiles that executes with admin privileges when the account is disabled, leading to remote code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"xwiki","vendor":"xwiki"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. When an admin disables a user account, the user's profile is executed with the admin's rights. This allows a user to place malicious code in the user profile before getting an admin to disable the user account. To reproduce, as a user without script nor programming rights, edit the about section of your user profile and add `{{groovy}}services.logging.getLogger(\"attacker\").error(\"Hello from Groovy!\"){{/groovy}}`.\nAs an admin, go to the user profile and click the \"Disable this account\" button. Then, reload the page. If the logs show `attacker - Hello from Groovy!` then the instance is vulnerable. This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.21, 15.5.5, 15.10.6 and 16.0.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.\n\n### Workarounds\nWe're not aware of any workaround except upgrading.\n\n### References\n* https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-21611\n*
