XWiki SolrSearch Exploit Attempts (CVE-2025-24893) with link to Chicago Gangs/Rappers, (Mon, Nov 3rd)

XWiki describes itself as “The Advanced Open-Source Enterprise Wiki” and considers itself an alternative to Confluence and MediaWiki. In February, XWiki released an advisory (and patch) for an arbitrary remote code execution vulnerability. Affected was the SolrSearch component, which any user, even with minimal “Guest” privileges, can use. The advisory included PoC code, so it is a bit odd that it took so long for the vulnerability to be widely exploited.

A new paper by researchers from SentinelOne takes direct aim at that issue with a practical model for authenticating workloads without long-lived secrets. Instead of relying on static keys, the team proposes using temporary, verifiable tokens that expire within minutes. Breaking from static credentials The researcher’s core argument is that static keys are incompatible with zero trust. These credentials often last months or … More → The post A new way to think about zero trust for workloads appeared first on Help Net Security.
