GitHub Security Advisory

Missing Authorization in User#setDisabledStatus in org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore

✓ GitHub Reviewed MODERATE Has CVE

Advisory Details

### Impact

It's possible for a user with only Script rights to enable or disable a user: this operation should be only doable for users with admin rights.

### Patches

This problem has been patched in XWiki 13.10.7, 14.4.2 and 14.5RC1.

### Workarounds

There is no workaround other than upgrading the wiki, but note that this only impacts users with Script rights: administrator should take care which users have such right.
