Vulnerability Title
Users with SCRIPT rights can execute arbitrary code in XWiki
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In XWiki before versions 11.10.5 or 12.2.1, any user with SCRIPT right (EDIT right before XWiki 7.4) can gain access to the application server Servlet context which contains tools allowing to instantiate arbitrary Java objects and invoke methods that may lead to arbitrary code execution. The only workaround is to give SCRIPT right only to trusted users.
