SCA: security update for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-localization-source-wiki (GHSA-xxp2-9c9g-7wmj)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 420751

Description

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

- XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform. In multilingual wikis, translations can be edited by any user
who has edit right, circumventing the rights that are normally required for authoring translations (script
right for user-scope translations, wiki admin for translations on the wiki). Starting in version
4.3-milestone-2 and prior to versions 4.10.20, 15.5.4, and 15.10-rc-1, this can be exploited for remote
code execution if the translation value is not properly escaped where it is used. This has been patched in
XWiki 14.10.20, 15.5.4 and 15.10RC1. As a workaround, one may restrict edit rights on documents that
contain translations. (CVE-2024-31983)
