DescriptionGitHub Advisory

XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. Any guest can perform arbitrary remote code execution through a request to SolrSearch. This impacts the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation. To reproduce on an instance, without being logged in, go to <host>/xwiki/bin/get/Main/SolrSearch?media=rss&text=%7D%7D%7D%7B%7Basync%20async%3Dfalse%7D%7D%7B%7Bgroovy%7D%7Dprintln%28"Hello%20from"%20%2B%20"%20search%20text%3A"%20%2B%20%2823%20%2B%2019%29%29%7B%7B%2Fgroovy%7D%7D%7B%7B%2Fasync%7D%7D%20. If there is an output, and the title of the RSS feed contains Hello from search text:42, then the instance is vulnerable. This vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 15.10.11, 16.4.1 and 16.5.0RC1. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may edit Main.SolrSearchMacros in SolrSearchMacros.xml on line 955 to match the rawResponse macro in macros.vm#L2824 with a content type of application/xml, instead of simply outputting the content of the feed.

AnalysisAI

XWiki Platform allows unauthenticated remote code execution through the SolrSearch endpoint, enabling guests to execute arbitrary code and compromise the entire XWiki installation.

Technical ContextAI

The CWE-95 eval injection in XWiki's SolrSearch page processes user input through the wiki's scripting engine without proper sanitization. Crafted search requests are evaluated as Groovy code, enabling arbitrary command execution on the server.

RemediationAI

Apply XWiki security updates. Restrict guest access to XWiki. Disable the SolrSearch feature if not required.
