GHSA-H6JM-F4HH-FW27

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-21 16:44 – Updated: 2026-04-24 21:08
VLAI
Summary
October CMS has Safe Mode Bypass via Twig Database Write Operations
Details

A vulnerability was identified in the Twig sandbox security policy that allowed database write operations when cms.safe_mode is enabled. Backend users with Developer permissions could use Twig template markup to execute insert, update, and delete operations on any database table through the query builder, which is included in the sandbox allow-list.

Impact

  • Arbitrary database writes including modification or deletion of any table
  • Requires authenticated backend access with Developer permissions
  • Only relevant when cms.safe_mode is enabled (otherwise direct PHP injection is already possible)

Patches

The vulnerability has been patched in v3.7.14 and v4.1.10. Write operations such as insert, update, delete, and truncate are now blocked on query builder and model objects within the Twig sandbox. All users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest patched version.

Workarounds

If upgrading immediately is not possible: - Restrict Developer tool access to fully trusted administrators only

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-06-20 19:55 – Updated: 2023-06-28 16:33
VLAI
Summary
XWiki Platform vulnerable to privilege escalation (PR) from account through TipsPanel
Details

Impact

It's possible to execute any wiki content with the right of the TipsPanel author by creating a tip UI extension.

To reproduce: * Add an object of type UIExtensionClass * Set "Extension Point ID" to org.xwiki.platform.help.tipsPanel * Set "Extension ID" to org.xwiki.platform.user.test (needs to be unique but otherwise doesn't matter) * Set "Extension Parameters" to tip={{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println("Hello " + "from groovy!"){{/groovy}}{{/async}} * Set "Extension Scope" to "Current User". * Click "Save & View" * Open the "Help.TipsPanel" document at /xwiki/bin/view/Help/TipsPanel where is the URL of your XWiki installation and press refresh repeatedly.

The groovy macro is executed, after the fix you get an error instead.

Patches

This has been patched in XWiki 15.1-rc-1 and 14.10.5.

Workarounds

There are no known workarounds for it.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
  • Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].

Mitigation MIT-4.4
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks

  • Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
  • For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
  • One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
System Configuration Installation

Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
