XWiki AdminTools: Unauthorized Access to AdminTools.SpammedPages (v <1.1)
CVE-2025-54990 Published on November 18, 2025

XWiki AdminTools application doesn't set permissions on the AdminTools space
XWiki AdminTools integrates administrative tools for managing a running XWiki instance. Prior to version 1.1, users without admin rights have access to AdminTools.SpammedPages. View rights are not restricted only to admin users for AdminTools.SpammedPages. While no data is visible to non admin users, the page is still accessible. This issue has been patched in version 1.1. A workaround involves setting the view rights for the AdminTools space to be only available for the XWikiAdminGroup.
