GitHub Security Advisory

XWiki Platform vulnerable to code injection from account through XWiki.SchedulerJobSheet

✓ GitHub Reviewed CRITICAL Has CVE

Advisory Details

### Impact

It's possible to execute anything with the right of the Scheduler Application sheet page.

To reproduce:
1. As a user without script or programming rights, edit your user profile with the object editor and add a new object of type XWiki.SchedulerJobClass (search for "Scheduler")
1. In "Job Script", add the following
```{{/code}} {{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println("Hello " + "from groovy!"){{/groovy} {{/async}}```
1. Click "Save & View"
1. If the job information isn't already displayed (you should see "Job Name", "Job Description", etc.), append ?sheet=XWiki.SchedulerJobSheet to the URL.

### Patches

This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.3 and 15.0 RC1.

### Workarounds

While the fix in the scheduler itself is easy, it relies on the code macro `source` parameter, which was introduced in 14.10.2 so you have to upgrade to benefit from it.
