    Improper Neutralization of Special Elements Used in a Template Engine

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Special Elements Used in a Template Engine via improper handling of dynamic template rendering in the HTTP Meta Info field of the Global Preferences Presentation section. An attacker can execute arbitrary template logic on the server by injecting crafted Apache Velocity template code. This may expose internal server information or, depending on configuration, allow further exploitation such as remote code execution or sensitive data leakage.

    Note:

    This is only exploitable if the attacker has authenticated administrator access to the Administration interface.

    How to fix Improper Neutralization of Special Elements Used in a Template Engine?

    Upgrade org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-velocity to version 17.6.0-rc-1 or higher.
