Description

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

- XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform. Prior to versions 4.10.19, 15.5.4, and 15.10-rc-1, parameters
of UI extensions are always interpreted as Velocity code and executed with programming rights. Any user
with edit right on any document like the user's own profile can create UI extensions. This allows remote
code execution and thereby impacts the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki

workarounds are available. (CVE-2024-31997)
