An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-46557 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui (Maven): affected from 15.3-rc-1; fixed in 15.10.14\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui (Maven): affected from 15.3-rc-1; fixed in 15.10.14\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui (Maven): affected from 16.0.0-rc-1; fixed in 16.4.6\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui (Maven): affected from 16.0.0-rc-1; fixed in 16.4.6\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui (Maven): affected from 16.5.0-rc-1; fixed in 16.10.0-rc-1\n- org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui (Maven): affected from 16.5.0-rc-1; fixed in 16.10.0-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-2025-46557/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-46557/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-46557","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-46557/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-46557","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"XWiki platform","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Users with view access can change the authentication mechanism, potentially bypassing SSO or breaking login functionality.","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":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"XWiki is a generic wiki platform. In versions starting from 15.3-rc-1 to before 15.10.14, from 16.0.0-rc-1 to before 16.4.6, and from 16.5.0-rc-1 to before 16.10.0-rc-1, a user who can access pages located in the XWiki space (by default, anyone) can access the page XWiki.Authentication.Administration and (unless an authenticator is set in xwiki.cfg) switch to another installed authenticator. Note that, by default, there is only one authenticator available (Standard XWiki Authenticator). So, if no authenticator extension was installed, it's not really possible to do anything for an attacker. Also, in most cases, if an SSO authenticator is installed and utilized (like OIDC or LDAP for example), the worst an attacker can do is break authentication by switching back to the standard authenticator (that's because it's impossible to login to a user which does not have a stored password, and that's usually what SSO authenticator produce). This issue has been patched in versions 15.10.14, 16.4.6, and 16.10.0-rc-1.","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":"Any user with view access to the XWiki space can change the authenticator","id":"CVE-2025-46557","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":"xwiki:xwiki","products":["xwiki:xwiki"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2025"},"n_packages":6,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"org.xwiki.contrib.markdown:syntax-markdown-commonmark12 vulnerable to XSS via Markdown content","id":"CVE-2025-46558"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["15.10.14"],"introduced":["15.3-rc-1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["15.10.14"],"introduced":["15.3-rc-1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","source":"GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["16.4.6"],"introduced":["16.0.0-rc-1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["16.4.6"],"introduced":["16.0.0-rc-1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","source":"GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["16.10.0-rc-1"],"introduced":["16.5.0-rc-1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["16.10.0-rc-1"],"introduced":["16.5.0-rc-1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-security-authentication-ui","source":"GHSA-f9c6-2f9p-82jj"}],"prev":{"headline":"MantisBT is Vulnerable to Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack via Excessive Note Length","id":"CVE-2025-46556"},"products":["xwiki-platform"],"published":"2025-04-30","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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-30","vendors":["xwiki"]},"summary":"Users with view access can change the authentication mechanism, potentially bypassing SSO or breaking login functionality.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-46557/"}
