Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.xwiki.platform

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-48048, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.xwiki.platform

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Xwiki platform livetable ui in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 16.10.17), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.xwiki.platform command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-359: Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor, where the product does not properly prevent a person's private, personal information from being accessed by actors who either (1) are not explicitly authorized to access the information or (2) do not have the implicit consent of the person about whom the information is collected. In Xwiki platform livetable ui, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### 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](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/c4442716b02ffcdaa9d5e703b1db6203e36456fa#diff-5a739e5865b1f1ad9d79b724791be51b0095a0170cc078911c940478b13b949a) can be applied manually to the wiki page `XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros`. ### Resources * https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-23875 * https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/c4442716b02ffcdaa9d5e703b1db6203e36456fa
