CVE-2023-37462
XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. Improper escaping in the document `SkinsCode.XWikiSkinsSheet` leads to an injection vector from view right on that document to programming rights, or in other words, it is possible to execute arbitrary script macros including Groovy and Python macros that allow remote code execution including unrestricted read and write access to all wiki contents. The attack works by opening a non-existing page with a name crafted to contain a dangerous payload.

- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 92%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 100
- Fecha de la puntuación: 7/10/2026
