CVE-2025-66024 Details
Description
The XWiki blog application allows users of the XWiki platform to create and manage blog posts. Versions starting with 9.15 and prior to 9.15.7 are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the Blog Post Title. The vulnerability arises because the post title is injected directly into the HTML <title> tag without proper escaping. An attacker with permissions to create or edit blog posts can inject malicious JavaScript into the title field. This script will execute in the browser of any user (including administrators) who views the blog post. This leads to potential session hijacking or privilege escalation. The vulnerability has been patched in the blog application version 9.15.7 by adding missing escaping. No known workarounds are available.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the XWiki blog application, affecting versions prior to 9.15.7.

This allows an attacker with permission to create or edit posts to inject malicious JavaScript into the title, which is then executed in the browser of any user who views the post, potentially leading to session hijacking or privilege escalation.
Users can update to XWiki Blog Application version 9.15.7 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched by adding the necessary escaping to prevent script injection.
