  "summary" : "XWiki allows RCE from script right in configurable sections",
  "details" : "### Impact\nAny user with script rights can perform arbitrary remote code execution by adding instances of `XWiki.ConfigurableClass` to any page. This compromises the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation.\n\nTo reproduce on a instance, as a user with script rights, edit your user profile and add an object of type `XWiki.ConfigurableClass` (\"Custom configurable sections\").\nSet \"Display in section\" and \"Display in category\" to `other`, \"Scope\" to `Wiki and all spaces` and \"Heading\" to:\n```\n#set($codeToExecute = 'Test') #set($codeToExecuteResult = '{{async}}{{groovy}}services.logging.getLogger(\"attacker\").error(\"Attack from Heading succeeded!\"){{/groovy}}{{/async}}')\n```\nSave the page and view it, then add `?sheet=XWiki.AdminSheet&viewer=content&section=other` to the URL.\nIf the logs contain \"attacker - Attack from Heading succeeded!\", then the instance is vulnerable.\n\n### Patches\nThis has been patched in XWiki 15.10.9 and 16.3.0.\n\n### Workarounds\nWe're not aware of any workaround except upgrading.\n\n### References\n* https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-21207\n* https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/8493435ff9606905a2d913607d6c79862d0c168d\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)",
