GHSA-RH28-MQJ4-8X59

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-26 20:16 – Updated: 2026-05-26 20:17

Summary

XWiki Platform's Livetable results still allow reconstructing password hashes using 768 requests

Details

Impact

XWiki discovered that the patch for GHSA-5cf8-vrr8-8hjm was insufficient and with slightly modified parameters to the LiveTableResults, it is still possible to discover password hashes one bit at a time, so with 768 requests, the full password salt and hash can be retrieved of a user.

Patches

The check for password (and email properties) has been adjusted in XWiki 18.0.0RC1, 17.10.13, 17.4.9 and 16.10.17.

Workarounds

The patch can be applied manually to the wiki page XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros.

CVE-2026-48048 (GCVE-0-2026-48048)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-08-10 15:52 – Updated: 2026-08-10 21:11

Title

XWiki Platform's Livetable results still allow reconstructing password hashes using 768 requests

Summary

XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform. XWiki discovered that the patch for GHSA-5cf8-vrr8-8hjm was insufficient. Starting with version 6.2.1 and prior to versions 18.0.0RC1, 17.10.13, 17.4.9 and 16.10.17, with slightly modified parameters to the `LiveTableResults`, it is still possible to discover password hashes one bit at a time, so with 768 requests, the full password salt and hash can be retrieved of a user. The check for password (and email properties) has been adjusted in XWiki 18.0.0RC1, 17.10.13, 17.4.9 and 16.10.17. As a workaround, the patch can be applied manually to the wiki page `XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros`.
