Description
Impact
A user that doesn't have programming rights can execute arbitrary code when creating a page using the Migration Page template. A possible attack vector is the following:
- Create a page and add the following content:
confluencepro.job.question.advanced.input={{/html}} {{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println("hello from groovy!"){{/groovy}}{{/async}}
- Use the object editor to add an object of type
XWiki.TranslationDocumentClasswith scopeUSER. - Access an unexisting page using the
MigrationTemplate
http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/edit/Page123?template=ConfluenceMigratorPro.Code.MigrationTemplate
It is expected that {{/html}} {{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println("hello from groovy!"){{/groovy}}{{/async}} will be present on the page, however, hello from groovy will be printed.
Patches
The issue will be fixed as part of v1.2. The fix was added with commit 35cef22

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for com.xwiki.confluencepro:application-confluence-migrator-pro-ui, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update com.xwiki.confluencepro:application-confluence-migrator-pro-ui to 1.2.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-6qvp-39mm-95v8 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
