GitHub Security Advisory

XWiki has no right protection on rollback action

✓ GitHub Reviewed HIGH Has CVE

Advisory Details

### Impact

The rollback action is missing a right protection: it means that a user can rollback to a previous version of the page to gain rights they don't have anymore.
This vulnerability impacts all version of XWiki since rollback action is available.

### Patches

The problem has been patched in XWiki 14.10.16, 15.5.3 and 15.8-rc-1 by ensuring that the rights are checked before performing the rollback.

### Workarounds

There's no workaround for this vulnerability, except paying attention to delete old versions of documents that could allow users to gain more rights.
