Summary

The default configuration of the XSLTResourceStream component is susceptible to remote code execution through XSLT injection, particularly when it processes input sourced from untrusted origins without adequate validation. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the server, potentially compromising sensitive data and system integrity. It is crucial for users to upgrade to the fixed versions 10.1.0, 9.18.0, or 8.16.0 to mitigate this risk.

Affected Version(s)

Apache Wicket 10.0.0-M1 <= 10.0.0

Apache Wicket 9.0.0 <= 9.17.0

Apache Wicket 8.0.0 <= 8.15.0
