SCA: security update for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-web-templates (GHSA-gx6h-936c-vrrr)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 415369

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.
 In affected versions there is a cross site scripting (XSS) vector in the `registerinline.vm` template
 related to the `xredirect` hidden field. This template is only used in the following conditions: 1. The
 wiki must be open to registration for anyone. 2. The wiki must be closed to view for Guest users or more
 specifically the XWiki.Registration page must be forbidden in View for guest user. A way to obtain the
 second condition is when administrators checked the "Prevent unregistered users from viewing pages,
 regardless of the page rights" box in the administration rights. This issue is patched in versions
 12.10.11, 14.0-rc-1, 13.4.7, 13.10.3. There are two main ways for protecting against this vulnerability,
 the easiest and the best one is by applying a patch in the `registerinline.vm` template, the patch
 consists in checking the value of the xredirect field to ensure it matches: `<input type="hidden"
 name="xredirect" value="$escapetool.xml($!request.xredirect)" />`. If for some reason it's not possible to
 patch this file, another workaround is to ensure "Prevent unregistered users from viewing pages,
 regardless of the page rights" is not checked in the rights and apply a better right scheme using groups
 and rights on spaces. (CVE-2022-23622)
