What is CVE-2024-56158?

A significant SQL injection vulnerability exists in XWiki that allows attackers to bypass query validation and execute arbitrary SQL queries using Oracle's DBMS_XMLGEN or DBMS_XMLQUERY functions. This is due to inadequate sanitization of query functions in the XWiki query validator and the inherent capabilities of Hibernate to utilize native functions in HQL queries. This flaw has been addressed in the releases 16.10.2, 16.4.7, and 15.10.16, thus users are encouraged to upgrade to these versions for enhanced security.
