CVE-2024-56158Network attack vector

Arbitrary SQL execution via unchecked HQL functions

Published Jun 12, 2025 · Updated Jan 12, 2026

SQL injection in XWiki Platform allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Oracle SQL through the REST query endpoint. StandardHQLCompleteStatementValidator accepts native function calls in SELECT expressions instead of restricting them to approved constructs, so Hibernate passes attacker-supplied DBMS_XMLGEN or DBMS_XMLQUERY calls to Oracle. The query endpoint must be reachable and XWiki must use Oracle; successful requests can read, write, or delete database data.
