SCA: security update for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-ui (GHSA-2858-8cfx-69m9)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 408786

Description

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

- XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform. Starting in version 2.4-milestone-1 and prior to versions
4.10.20, 15.5.4, and 15.10-rc-1, XWiki's database search allows remote code execution through the search
text. This allows remote code execution for any visitor of a public wiki or user of a closed wiki as the
database search is by default accessible for all users. This impacts the confidentiality, integrity and
availability of the whole XWiki installation. This vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 14.10.20,
15.5.4 and 15.10RC1. As a workaround, one may manually apply the patch to the page `Main.DatabaseSearch`.
Alternatively, unless database search is explicitly used by users, this page can be deleted as this is not
the default search interface of XWiki. (CVE-2024-31982)
