  "summary": "XWiki Platform may allow privilege escalation to programming rights via user's first name",
  "details": "### Impact\nAny user can edit his own profile and inject code which is going to be executed with programming right.\n\nSteps to reproduce:\n\n* Set your first name to\n\n```\n    {{cache id=\"userProfile\"}}{{groovy}}println(\"Hello from groovy!\"){{/groovy}}{{/cache}}\n```\n\nThe first name appears as interpreted \"`Hello from groovy`\" instead of the expected fully escaped \"`{{cache id=\"userProfile\"}}{{groovy}}println(\"Hello from groovy!\"){{/groovy}}{{/cache}}`\".\n\nThe same vulnerability can also be exploited in all other places where short text properties are displayed, e.g., in apps created using [Apps Within Minutes](https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/App%20Within%20Minutes%20Application) that use a short text field.\n\n### Patches\nThe problem has been patched on versions 13.10.9, 14.4.4, 14.7RC1.\n\n### Workarounds\nThere are no other workarounds than upgrading XWiki or patching the xwiki-commons-xml JAR file.\n\n### References\n* https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-19793\n* https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-19794\n* https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-2498\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Open an issue in [Jira XWiki.org](https://jira.xwiki.org/)\n* Email us at [Security Mailing List](mailto:security@xwiki.org)\n",
