### Impact It's possible for a user with only Script rights to enable or disable a user: this operation should be only doable for users with admin rights. ### Patches This problem has been patched in XWiki 13.10.7, 14.4.2 and 14.5RC1. ### Workarounds There is no workaround other than upgrading the wiki, but note that this only impacts users with Script rights: administrator should take care which users have such right. ### References * https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-19804 * https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/0b732f2ef0224e2aaf10e2e1ef48dbd3fb6e10cd ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [JIRA](https://jira.xwiki.org) * Email us at [security ML](mailto:security@xwiki.org)
