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.
Starting in version 5.1-rc-1 and prior to versions 14.10.8 and 15.3-rc-1, any user who can edit their own
user profile can execute arbitrary script macros including Groovy and Python macros that allow remote code
execution including unrestricted read and write access to all wiki contents. This has been patched in
XWiki 14.10.8 and 15.3-rc-1 by adding proper escaping. As a workaround, the patch can be manually applied
to the document `Menu.UIExtensionSheet`; only three lines need to be changed. (CVE-2023-37909)
