### Impact On instances where `Extension Repository Application` is installed, any user can execute any code requiring `programming` rights on the server. In order to reproduce on an instance, as a normal user without `script` nor `programming` rights, go to your profile and add an object of type `ExtensionCode.ExtensionClass`. Set the description to `{{async}}{{groovy}}println("Hello from Description"){{/groovy}}{{/async}}` and press `Save and View`. If the description displays as `Hello from Description` without any error, then the instance is vulnerable. ### Patches This vulnerability has been fixed in XWiki 15.10.9 and 16.3.0. ### Workarounds Since `Extension Repository Application` is not mandatory, it can be safely disabled on instances that do not use it. It is also possible to manually apply [this patch](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/8659f17d500522bf33595e402391592a35a162e8#diff-9b6f9e853f23d76611967737f8c4072ffceaba4c006ca5a5e65b66d988dc084a) to the page `Ex...

In the context of using MD5 to generate filenames for cache keys, there are significant collision hazards that need to be considered. MD5, or Message Digest Algorithm 5, is a widely known cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit hash value. However, MD5 is no longer considered secure against well-funded opponents due to its vulnerability to collision attacks. ### Understanding Collisions A collision in hashing occurs when two different inputs produce the same hash output. For MD5, this means that it is theoretically possible, and even practical, to find two distinct cache keys that result in the same MD5 hash. This vulnerability has been well-documented and exploited in various security contexts. ### Implications for Cache Systems In a cache system where filenames are derived from the MD5 hash of cache keys, a collision could lead to several critical issues: Data Integrity Risks: If two different keys collide, they will map to the same filename. This could result in data ...
