Description

Impact

Mail.MailConfig can be edited by any logged-in user by default. Consequently, they can:

  • change the mail obfuscation configuration
  • view and edit the mail sending configuration, including the smtp domain name and credentials.

Patches

The problem has been patched on XWiki 14.4.8, 15.1, and 14.10.6.

Workarounds

The rights of the Mail.MailConfig page can be manually updated so that only a set of trusted users can view, edit and delete it (e.g., the XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup group). On 14.4.8+, 15.1-rc-1+, or 14.10.5+, if at startup Mail.MailConfig does not have any rights defined, view, edit and delete rights are automatically granted to the XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup group. See the corresponding patch.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-mail-send-default to 14.4.8 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-g75c-cjr6-39mc is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Close the privilege gap rather than the entry point: audit which accounts, roles and service identities can reach the affected operation, drop the component to the least privilege it actually needs, and review file and directory permissions created by earlier installs — a default left in place is what makes this reachable.
