CVE-2022-29258: Cross-site Scripting in Filter Stream Converter Application in XWiki Platform
XWiki Platform Filter UI provides a generic user interface to convert from a XWiki Filter input stream to an output stream with settings for each stream. Starting with versions 6.0-milestone-2 and 5.4.4 and prior to versions 12.10.11, 14.0-rc-1, 13.4.7, and 13.10.3, XWiki Platform Filter UI contains a possible cross-site scripting vector in the Filter.FilterStreamDescriptorForm wiki page related to pretty much all the form fields printed in the home page of the application. The issue is patched in versions 12.10.11, 14.0-rc-1, 13.4.7, and 13.10.3. The easiest workaround is to edit the wiki page Filter.FilterStreamDescriptorForm (with wiki editor) according to the instructions in the GitHub Security Advisory.
