CVE-2025-54125
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedXWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. XWiki Platform Legacy Old Core and XWiki Platform Old Core versions 1.1 through 16.4.6, 16.5.0-rc-1 through 16.10.4 and 17.0.0-rc-1 through 17.1.0, the XML export of a page in XWiki that can be triggered by any user with view rights on a page by appending ?xpage=xml to the URL includes password and email properties stored on a document that aren't named password or email. This is fixed in versions 16.4.7, 16.10.5 and 17.2.0-rc-1. To work around this issue, the file templates/xml.vm in the deployed WAR can be deleted if the XML isn't needed. There isn't any feature in XWiki itself that depends on the XML export.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped16.4.716.10.5
Upgrade to 16.4.7, 16.10.5, or 17.2.0-rc-1 (depending on your current major version branch)
- 1. Backup the current XWiki installation and database before upgrading
- 2. Upgrade XWiki to version 16.4.7, 16.10.5, or 17.2.0-rc-1 (choose based on your current major version)
- 3. Redeploy and restart the XWiki application
- 4. Verify the XML export functionality works correctly after upgrade
- 5. Alternatively, if upgrade is not immediately possible, delete the file templates/xml.vm from the deployed WAR as a temporary workaround
