Description XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform. Starting in version 9.7-rc-1 and prior to versions 15.10.11, 16.4.1, and 16.5.0, any user with an account can perform arbitrary remote code execution by adding instances of XWiki.WikiMacroClass to any page.

Recommendations For XWiki Platform versions 9.7-rc-1 through 15.10.10, update to version 15.10.11 or later. For XWiki Platform versions 16.4.0, update to version 16.4.1 or later.
