### Impact A user able to attach a file to a page can post a malformed TAR file by manipulating file modification times headers, which when parsed by Tika, could cause a denial of service issue via CPU consumption. ### Patches This vulnerability has been patched in XWiki 14.10.18, 15.5.3 and 15.8 RC1. ### Workarounds The workaround is to download [commons-compress 1.24](https://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/apache/commons/commons-compress/1.24.0/commons-compress-1.24.0.jar) and replace the one located in XWiki `WEB-INF/lib/` folder. ### References https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-2796 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [Jira XWiki.org](https://jira.xwiki.org/) * Email us at [Security Mailing List](mailto:[email protected])

### Impact The rollback action is missing a right protection: it means that a user can rollback to a previous version of the page to gain rights they don't have anymore. This vulnerability impacts all version of XWiki since rollback action is available. ### Patches The problem has been patched in XWiki 14.10.16, 15.5.3 and 15.8-rc-1 by ensuring that the rights are checked before performing the rollback. ### Workarounds There's no workaround for this vulnerability, except paying attention to delete old versions of documents that could allow users to gain more rights. ### References * JIRA ticket: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-21257 * Commit: [4de72875ca49602796165412741033bfdbf1e680](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/4de72875ca49602796165412741033bfdbf1e680) ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [Jira XWiki.org](https://jira.xwiki.org/) * Email us at [Security Mailing List](mailto:security@x...

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202401-11 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Apache Batik, the worst of which could result in arbitrary code execution. Versions greater than or equal to 1.17 are affected.

** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache Axis allowed users with access to the admin service to perform possible SSRF. This issue affects Apache Axis through 1.3. As Axis 1 has been EOL, we recommend you migrate to a different SOAP engine, such as Apache Axis 2/Java. Alternatively you could use a build of Axis with the patch from https://github.com/apache/axis-axis1-java/commit/685c309febc64aa393b2d64a05f90e7eb9f73e06 applied. The Apache Axis project does not expect to create an Axis 1.x release fixing this problem, though contributors that would like to work towards this are welcome.
