XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. It's possible to execute any wiki content with the right of the TipsPanel author by creating a tip UI extension. This has been patched in XWiki 15.1-rc-1 and 14.10.5.

GHSA-h7cw-44vp-jq7h — XWiki Platform vulnerable to privilege escalation (PR) from account through TipsPanel

Affected: Maven: org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-help-ui

### Impact

It's possible to execute any wiki content with the right of the TipsPanel author by creating a tip UI extension.

To reproduce: * Add an object of type UIExtensionClass * Set "Extension Point ID" to org.xwiki.platform.help.tipsPanel * Set "Extension ID" to org.xwiki.platform.user.test (needs to be unique but otherwise doesn't matter) * Set "Extension Parameters" to ``` tip={{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println("Hello " + "from groovy!"){{/groovy}}{{/async}} ``` * Set "Extension Scope" to "Current User". * Click "Save & View" * Open the "Help.TipsPanel" document at <xwiki-host>/xwiki/bin/view/Help/TipsPanel where <xwiki-host> is the URL of your XWiki installation and press refresh repeatedly.

The groovy macro is executed, after the fix you get an error instead.

### Patches

This has been patched in XWiki 15.1-rc-1 and 14.10.5.

### Workarounds

There are no known workarounds for it.
