CVE-2022-41931Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unescaped macro parameters

Published Nov 23, 2022 · Updated Apr 22, 2025

Eval injection in the icon picker macro in CryptPad XWiki Platform allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary server code. IconPickerMacro inserts attacker-controlled id and class parameters directly into JavaScript selectors, allowing nested Groovy, Python, or Velocity macros to escape the script context and run. View rights to a commonly accessible document containing the macro are sufficient, exposing the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the XWiki instance.
