Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-06-20 19:55 – Updated: 2023-06-28 16:33Impact
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.
