Unauthenticated password and email disclosure via REST serialization
Published Jun 23, 2023 · Updated Nov 27, 2024
Information disclosure in XWiki Platform allows remote attackers to read stored password values and unobfuscated email addresses through REST. ModelFactory serializes object properties into REST responses without suppressing Password fields or applying configured email obfuscation. Guest access to a known user-object URL is sufficient; the response exposes credential material and personal email data without granting write access.
