Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor via the NotificationFilterPreferenceLivetableResults URL parameter. An attacker can access notification filters of any user by manipulating the URL with specific user details, like <hostname>xwiki/bin/get/XWiki/Notifications/Code/NotificationFilterPreferenceLivetableResults?outputSyntax=plain&type=custom&user=<username>.
Note:
The filters do not provide much information (they mainly contain references which are public data in XWiki), though some info could be used in combination with other vulnerabilities.
