GHSA-VRR8-FP7C-7QGP

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-04-12 20:36 – Updated: 2023-04-18 14:35

Summary

org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-flamingo-theme-ui vulnerable to privilege escalation

Details

Impact

Any user with the right to add an object on a page can execute arbitrary Groovy, Python or Velocity code in XWiki leading to full access to the XWiki installation. The root cause is improper escaping of the styles properties FlamingoThemesCode.WebHome. This page is installed by default.

Reproduction Steps

Steps to reproduce:

As a user without script or programming rights, edit your user profile with the object editor (enable advanced mode if necessary to get access) and add an object of type "Theme Class" of "FlamingoThemesCode". In the field "body-bg" (all other fields should work, too) add the following text:

{{/html}} {{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println("Hello " + "from groovy!"){{/groovy}}{{/async}}

Click "Save & View"
Open /xwiki/bin/view/FlamingoThemesCode/WebHomeSheet where is the URL of your XWiki installation

Expected result:

The list of color themes either doesn't include the user's profile or displays a regular preview.

Actual result:

The user's profile is listed as color theme but instead of the little preview the message

Failed to execute the [html] macro. Cause: [When using HTML content inline, you can only use inline HTML content. Block HTML content (such as tables) cannot be displayed. Try leaving an empty line before and after the macro.]. Click on this message for details.
Hello from groovy!">

is displayed. This shows that a Groovy macro with content created by the user has been executed and thus demonstrates a privilege escalation from simple user account to programming rights.

Patches

The vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 13.10.11, 14.4.7 and 14.10.

Workarounds

The issue can be fixed by applying this patch on FlamingoThemesCode.WebHomeSheet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
