SCA: security update for org.xwiki.contrib.oidc:oidc-authenticator (GHSA-m7gv-v8xx-v47w)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 416812

Description

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

- XWiki OIDC has various tools to manipulate OpenID Connect protocol in XWiki. Prior to version 1.29.1, even
if a wiki has an OpenID provider configured through its xwiki.properties, it is possible to provide a
third party provider its details through request parameters. One can then bypass the XWiki authentication
altogether by specifying its own provider through the oidc.endpoint.* request parameters (or by using an
XWiki-based OpenID provider with oidc.xwikiprovider. With the same approach, one could also provide a
specific group mapping through oidc.groups.mapping that would make his user automatically part of the
XWikiAdminGroup. This issue has been patched, please upgrade to 1.29.1. There is no workaround, an upgrade
of the authenticator is required. (CVE-2022-39387)
