{"id":"GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24","summary":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting via HTML and raw macro","details":"### Impact\n\nThe HTML macro does not systematically perform a proper neutralization of script-related html tags. As a result, any user able to use the html macro in XWiki, is able to introduce an XSS attack. This can be particularly dangerous since in a standard wiki, any user is able to use the html macro directly in their own user profile page. \n\n### Patches\n\nThe problem has been patched in XWiki 14.8RC1. The patch involve that the HTML macro are systematically cleaned up whenever the user does not have script right. \n\n### Workarounds\n\nThere's no workaround for this issue.\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Open an issue in [Jira](https://jira.xwiki.org)\n* Email us at [security ML](mailto:security@xwiki.org)\n","aliases":["CVE-2023-29205"],"modified":"2026-09-10T03:50:01.175589144Z","published":"2023-04-12T20:38:44Z","database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-79"],"severity":"CRITICAL","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2023-04-12T20:38:44Z","nvd_published_at":"2023-04-15T16:15:00Z"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/security/advisories/GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-29205"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18568"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki","ecosystem":"Maven","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-rendering-xwiki"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"14.8-rc-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2023/04/GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24/GHSA-vxf7-mx22-jr24.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
