How do I fix GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j?

Update org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-ui to version 15.10.11 or later. Run your dependency manager's update command and verify no transitive dependencies pin the vulnerable version. Use O3 Security's SCA scanner to confirm the fix is applied across your entire dependency tree.

Is GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 13 known exploit references for GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j, including 2 documented proof-of-concept exploits on Exploit-DB. Treat this as actively exploitable and prioritize patching immediately. All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j?

GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 93.8%, placing it in the 100th 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. A score above 50% indicates significantly elevated exploitation risk — immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Is GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog?

Yes. GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j (XWiki Platform Eval Injection Vulnerability) was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog on 2025-10-30. CISA required all US federal civilian agencies to remediate this vulnerability by 2025-11-20. The required action was: Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Being listed in the KEV catalog is the strongest possible confirmation of active exploitation — treat this as a critical priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j?

GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j is classified as CWE-95 (CWE-95), Code Injection (CWE-94). These weakness types 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 GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j?

A Nuclei detection template exists for GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j, 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 GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-rr6p-3pfg-562j was published on February 20, 2025 and was last updated on October 30, 2025. 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

Any guest can perform arbitrary remote code execution through a request to SolrSearch. This impacts the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the whole XWiki installation.

To 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.

Patches

This vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 15.10.11, 16.4.1 and 16.5.0RC1.

Workarounds

This line in Main.SolrSearchMacros can be edited to match the rawResponse macro defined here with a content type of application/xml, instead of simply outputting the content of the feed.
