SCA: security update for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (GHSA-4f8m-7h83-9f6m)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 410131

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it.
The create action is vulnerable to a CSRF attack, allowing script and thus remote code execution when
targeting a user with script/programming right, thus compromising the confidentiality, integrity and
availability of the whole XWiki installation. When a user with script right views this image and a log
message `ERROR foo - Script executed!` appears in the log, the XWiki installation is vulnerable. This has
been patched in XWiki 14.10.9 and 15.4RC1 by requiring a CSRF token for the actual page creation.
(CVE-2023-40572)
