What is CVE-2025-48063?

A vulnerability in the XWiki platform allows users with edit rights on documents to incorrectly assign programming rights through the enforcement of required rights. This misconfiguration can lead to the execution of malicious code if exploited, effectively undermining the security benefits intended by the restriction on rights assignment. Users with programming rights editing the vulnerable documents may trigger this flaw, permitting unauthorized code execution. To mitigate this risk, users are advised to update to versions 16.10.4 or 17.1.0RC1, as no workarounds are available.

Affected Version(s)

xwiki-platform >= 16.10.0-rc-1, < 16.10.4 < 16.10.0-rc-1, 16.10.4

xwiki-platform >= 17.0.0-rc-1, < 17.1.0-rc-1 < 17.0.0-rc-1, 17.1.0-rc-1
