CVE-2023-29208Network attack vector

Restricted document disclosure via missing recycle-bin checks

Published Apr 15, 2023 · Updated Feb 6, 2025

Information disclosure in XWiki Platform affected releases allows remote attackers to read restricted deleted documents over the network. The recycle-bin revision path loads document content without checking the current user's view right against the deleted entry. No authentication or user interaction is required, but disclosure is limited to deleted documents carrying document-level rather than space-level view restrictions.
