Multiple WordPress plugins have been backdoored to inject malicious code that makes it possible to create rogue administrator accounts with the aim of performing arbitrary actions.

### Impact Before deserializing CycloneDX Bill of Materials in XML format, _cyclonedx-core-java_ leverages XPath expressions to determine the schema version of the BOM. The `DocumentBuilderFactory` used to evaluate XPath expressions was not configured securely, making the library vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) injection. XXE injection can be exploited to exfiltrate local file content, or perform Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) to access infrastructure adjacent to the vulnerable application. ### PoC ```java import org.cyclonedx.parsers.XmlParser; class Poc { public static void main(String[] args) { // Will throw org.cyclonedx.exception.ParseException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused new XmlParser().parse(""" <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE bom [<!ENTITY % sp SYSTEM "https://localhost:1010/does-not-exist/file.dtd"> %sp;]> <bom xmlns="http://cyclonedx.org/schema/bom/1.5"/> ...

go-retryablehttp prior to 0.7.7 did not sanitize urls when writing them to its log file. This could lead to go-retryablehttp writing sensitive HTTP basic auth credentials to its log file. This vulnerability, CVE-2024-6104, was fixed in go-retryablehttp 0.7.7.
### Impact The content of a document included using `{{include reference="targetdocument"/}}` is executed with the right of the includer and not with the right of its author. This means that any user able to modify the target document can impersonate the author of the content which used the `include` macro. ### Patches This has been patched in XWiki 15.0 RC1 by making the default behavior safe. ### Workarounds Make sure to protect any included document to make sure only allowed users can modify it. A workaround have been provided in 14.10.2 to allow forcing to execute the included content with the target content author instead of the default behavior. See https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Include%20Macro#HAuthor for more details. ### References https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-5027 https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-20471 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [Jira XWiki.org](https://j...
