Overview

org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authorization due to missing a check for inactive (not yet activated or disabled) users in XWiki, including in the REST service. This means a disabled user can enable themselves using a REST call.
