What is CVE-2025-32430?

### Impact Reflected XSS vulnerabilities in two templates allow an attacker to execute malicious JavaScript code in the context of the victim's session by getting the victim to visit an attacker-controlled URL. PoC URLs are `/xwiki/bin/view/Main/?xpage=job_status_json&jobId=asdf&translationPrefix= ` and `/xwiki/bin/view/Main/?xpage=distribution&extensionId=%3Cimg src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)%3E&extensionVersionConstraint=%3Cimg src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)%3E`. This allows the attacker to perform arbitrary actions using the permissions o

How severe is CVE-2025-32430?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2025-32430 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2025-32430?

CVE-2025-32430 affects the following packages: org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-web-templates (Maven), org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-web-templates (Maven), org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-web-templates (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2025-32430?

Update org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-web-templates to 16.4.8 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-32430 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2025-32430 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-web-templates, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2025-32430 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.

Is CVE-2025-32430 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2025-32430 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2025-32430?

CVE-2025-32430 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.7%, placing it in the 54th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2025-32430?

CVE-2025-32430 is classified as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) (CWE-79). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

Is there exploit tooling available for CVE-2025-32430?

A Nuclei detection template exists for CVE-2025-32430, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was CVE-2025-32430 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2025-32430 was published on August 5, 2025 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Impact

Reflected XSS vulnerabilities in two templates allow an attacker to execute malicious JavaScript code in the context of the victim's session by getting the victim to visit an attacker-controlled URL. PoC URLs are /xwiki/bin/view/Main/?xpage=job_status_json&jobId=asdf&translationPrefix=<img src=1 onerror=alert(document.domain)> and /xwiki/bin/view/Main/?xpage=distribution&extensionId=%3Cimg src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)%3E&extensionVersionConstraint=%3Cimg src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)%3E. This allows the attacker to perform arbitrary actions using the permissions of the victim.

Patches

The problem has been patched in XWiki 16.4.8, 16.10.6 and 17.3.0RC1 by adding escaping in the affected templates.

Workarounds

The affected templates can be patched manually in the WAR by applying the same changes as in the patch.

Attribution

The vulnerability involving job_status_json has been reported as "Unauth Reflected XSS" vulnerability by Aleksey Solovev (Positive Technologies), and the vulnerability involving distribution has been reported as "Auth Admin Reflected XSS" vulnerability by Evgeny Kopytin (Positive Technologies). According to our analysis, both vulnerabilities can be exploited against both unauthenticated and authenticated victims (including victims with admin privileges) which is why we publish them together in this advisory.

How to detect CVE-2025-32430

A community-maintained Nuclei template exists for this CVE. You can scan for it directly:

nuclei -id cve-2025-32430 -u https://target

Template: XWiki Platform - Cross-Site Scripting
Severity: medium
Impact: Attackers can execute malicious JavaScript in victim sessions by crafting URLs with XSS payloads in translationPrefix, extensionId, or extensionVersionConstraint parameters.
Remediation: Upgrade to XWiki Platform version 16.4.8, 16.10.6, or 17.3.0-rc-1 or later that properly sanitizes user input in templates.
