Overview
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-export-pdf-api is an API for multipage PDF export that supports both client-side printing, using the user's web browser, and server-side printing, e.g. using a headless Chrome browser that may run inside a Docker container.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Storing Passwords in a Recoverable Format via the PDF export job process. An attacker can obtain sensitive user credentials by accessing the serialized job status files stored in the permanent directory, as these files contain unencrypted cookies and the encryption key is also present in the same directory.
