CVE-2025-55727

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

XWiki Remote Macros provides XWiki rendering macros that are useful when migrating content from Confluence. Starting in version 1.0 and prior to version 1.26.5, missing escaping of the width parameter in the column macro allows remote code execution for any user who can edit any page or who can access the CKEditor converter. The width parameter is used without escaping in XWiki syntax, thus allowing XWiki syntax injection which enables remote code execution when the macro has been installed by a user with programming right, or it at least allows executing Velocity code as the wiki admin. Version 1.26.5 contains a patch for the issue.

A partir de la versión 1.0 y antes de la versión 1.26.5, la falta de escape del parámetro 'width' en la macro 'column' permite la ejecución remota de código para cualquier usuario que pueda editar cualquier página o que pueda acceder al conversor de CKEditor. El parámetro 'width' se utiliza sin escape en la sintaxis de XWiki, lo que permite la inyección de sintaxis de XWiki que habilita la ejecución remota de código cuando la macro ha sido instalada por un usuario con derechos de programación, o al menos permite ejecutar código Velocity como el administrador del wiki. La versión 1.26.5 contiene un parche para el problema."
