XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. In versions prior to 14.10.4 it's possible to exploit well known parameters in XWiki URLs to perform redirection to untrusted site. This vulnerability was partially fixed in the past for XWiki 12.10.7 and 13.3RC1 but there is still the possibility to force specific URLs to skip some checks, e.g. using URLs like `http:example.com` in the parameter would allow the redirect. The issue has now been patched against all patterns that are known for performing redirects. This issue has been patched in XWiki 14.10.4 and 15.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Monitor HTTP responses for a Location header redirecting to an external/untrusted domain following requests to /bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin with an xredirect parameter containing protocol-relative or malformed URLs (e.g., //example.com or http:example.com). ↗
- →Detect exploitation attempts by inspecting GET requests to XWiki login endpoints where the xredirect parameter value begins with // or uses a malformed scheme such as http:example.com (missing double slash) to bypass redirect validation. ↗
- →Use Shodan/FOFA queries to identify exposed XWiki instances as potential targets: Shodan html:"data-xwiki-reference", FOFA body="data-xwiki-reference". ↗
- ·The vulnerability affects XWiki versions prior to 14.10.4; a partial fix was previously applied in 12.10.7 and 13.3RC1 but was insufficient to block all bypass patterns. ↗
- ·There are no known workarounds; upgrade to XWiki 14.10.4 or 15.0 is the only remediation. ↗

CVE-2023-32068 [MEDIUM] CWE-601 org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore Open Redirect vulnerability
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore Open Redirect vulnerability
### Impact
It's possible to exploit well known parameters in XWiki URLs to perform redirection to untrusted site. This vulnerability was partially fixed in the past for XWiki 12.10.7 and 13.3RC1 but there is still the possibility to force specific URLs to skip some checks, e.g. using URLs like `http:example.com` in the parameter would allow the redirect.
### Patches
The issue has now been patched against all patterns that we know about for performing redirect. It also performs a real URI parsing that should protect in most cases. This has been patched in XWiki 14.10.4 and 15.0.
### Workarounds
The only workaround is to upgrade XWiki.
