  "details": "### Impact\n\nIt\u0027s possible using comments to inject CSS that would transform the full wiki in a link area leading to a malicious page. All versions of XWiki are impacted by this kind of attack. \n\n### Patches\n\nThe problem has been patched not by preventing injecting CSS in comments, which is currently a feature of XWiki, but by requiring confirmation from users when driving them to untrusted domains after clicking on a link, thus preventing any click-jacking attack. \nThis security measure has been put in place in XWiki 17.9.0, 17.4.6, 16.10.13.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nThere\u0027s no out-of-the-box workaround, but it should be possible to partly reuse [the javascript code provided for the security measure](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/xwiki-platform-17.9.0/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-web/xwiki-platform-web-war/src/main/webapp/resources/uicomponents/link/link-protection.js) in a JSX object inside the wiki, to request the same kind of confirmation. \n\n### References\n  * JIRA ticket: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-23433\n  * Documentation of the new security measure: https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/Data/XWiki/17.9.0RC1/Entry006/\n  * Commit for the security fix: https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/29cb81f3a5387cf822d7e7534bdd63903275f86b\n\n### For more information\n\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\n### Attribution\n\nThanks Tomas Keech (Sentrium Security Ltd) for reporting this vulnerability.",
