SCA: security update for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-oldcore, org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore (GHSA-h259-74h5-4rh9)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 440074

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.
 Prior to 17.4.8 and 17.10.1, an improperly protected scripting API allows any user with script right to
 bypass the sandboxing of the Velocity scripting API and execute, e.g., arbitrary Python scripts, allowing
 full access to the XWiki instance and thereby compromising the confidentiality, integrity and availability
 of the whole instance. Note that script right already constitutes a high level of access that we don't
 recommend giving to untrusted users. This vulnerability is fixed in 17.4.8 and 17.10.1. (CVE-2026-33229)

Solution

Update the org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-legacy-oldcore library and its related packages to version 17.10.1 or later.
