{"id":"CVE-2025-24893","aliases":["GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2025-24893","summary":"Remote code execution as guest via SolrSearchMacros request in xwiki","details":"### Impact\nAny guest can perform arbitrary remote code execution through a request to `SolrSearch`. This impacts the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation.\n\nTo reproduce on an instance, without being logged in, go to `<host>/xwiki/bin/get/Main/SolrSearch?media=rss&text=%7D%7D%7D%7B%7Basync%20async%3Dfalse%7D%7D%7B%7Bgroovy%7D%7Dprintln%28\"Hello%20from\"%20%2B%20\"%20search%20text%3A\"%20%2B%20%2823%20%2B%2019%29%29%7B%7B%2Fgroovy%7D%7D%7B%7B%2Fasync%7D%7D%20`. If there is an output, and the title of the RSS feed contains `Hello from search text:42`, then the instance is vulnerable.\n\n### Patches\nThis vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 15.10.11, 16.4.1 and 16.5.0RC1.\n\n### Workarounds\n[This line](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/568447cad5172d97d6bbcfda9f6183689c2cf086/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-search/xwiki-platform-search-solr/xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui/src/main/resources/Main/SolrSearchMacros.xml#L955) in `Main.SolrSearchMacros` can be edited to match the `rawResponse` macro defined [here](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/67021db9b8ed26c2236a653269302a86bf01ef40/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-web/xwiki-platform-web-templates/src/main/resources/templates/macros.vm#L2824) with a content type of `application/xml`, instead of simply outputting the content of the feed.\n\n### References\n\n* https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-22149\n* https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/67021db9b8ed26c2236a653269302a86bf01ef40\n\n### Attribution\nThis vulnerability has been reported by John Kwak for Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative.","published":"2025-02-20T19:19:10.597Z","modified":"2026-10-22T07:34:12.158752477Z","cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":{"score":0.99864,"percentile":0.99962,"asOf":"2026-09-15"},"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":13,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui","fixedVersion":"15.10.11"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui","fixedVersion":"16.4.1"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/67021db9b8ed26c2236a653269302a86bf01ef40","label":"xwiki/xwiki-platform@67021db"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/568447cad5172d97d6bbcfda9f6183689c2cf086/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-search/xwiki-platform-search-solr/xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui/src/main/resources/Main/SolrSearchMacros.xml#L955"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/67021db9b8ed26c2236a653269302a86bf01ef40/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-web/xwiki-platform-web-templates/src/main/resources/templates/macros.vm#L2824"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-22149"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog?field_cve=CVE-2025-24893"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/24xxx/CVE-2025-24893.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/security/advisories/GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-24893"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/67021db9b8ed26c2236a653269302a86bf01ef40"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-10-22T07:34:12.158752477Z"}}
