SCA: security update for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-administration-ui (GHSA-mgjw-2wrp-r535)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 416952

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 it's possible for an unprivileged user to perform a remote code execution by
injecting a groovy script in her own profile and by calling the Reset password feature since the feature
is performing a save of the user profile with programming rights in the impacted versions of XWiki. The
issue has been patched in XWiki 13.1RC1. There are two different possible workarounds, each consisting of
modifying the XWiki/ResetPassword page. 1. The Reset password feature can be entirely disabled by deleting
the XWiki/ResetPassword page. 2. The script in XWiki/ResetPassword can also be modified or removed: an
administrator can replace it with a simple email contact to ask an administrator to reset the password.
(CVE-2022-23616)
