### Impact A vulnerability in the Backstage permission plugin backend allows callers to extract some information about the conditional decisions returned by the permission policy installed in the permission backend. If the permission system is not in use or if the installed permission policy does not use conditional decisions, there is no impact. ### Patches This issue has been resolved in version `0.6.0` of the permissions backend. ### Workarounds Administrators of the permission policies can ensure that they are crafted in such a way that conditional decisions do not contain any sensitive information. ### References If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: Open an issue in the [Backstage repository](https://github.com/backstage/backstage) Visit our Discord, linked to in [Backstage README](https://github.com/backstage/backstage)
### Impact This vulnerability impacts users of a subwiki of XWiki where Message Stream is enabled and use, if they configured their wiki to be closed by selecting "Prevent unregistered users to view pages" in the Administrations Rights. The vulnerability is that any message sent in a subwiki to "everyone" is actually sent to the farm: any visitor of the main wiki will be able to see that message through the Dashboard, even if the subwiki is configured to be private. ### Patches This problem has not been patched and is not going to be patched in the future: Message Stream has been deprecated in XWiki 16.8.0RC1 and is not maintained anymore. ### Workarounds Message Stream is disabled by default, it's advised to keep it disabled from Administration > Social > Message Stream. ### References * https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-17154
