{"cve":"CVE-2021-32729","nvd":{"published":"2021-07-01T17:15:07.723","modified":"2026-06-17T03:53:30.867","status":"Modified","description":"XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it. A vulnerability exists in versions prior to 12.6.88, 12.10.4, and 13.0. The script service method used to reset the authentication failures record can be executed by any user with Script rights and does not require Programming rights. An attacher with script rights who is able to reset the authentication failure record might perform a brute force attack, since they would be able to virtually deactivate the mechanism introduced to mitigate those attacks. The problem has been patched in version 12.6.8, 12.10.4 and 13.0. There are no workarounds aside from upgrading.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":5.4},"cwes":["CWE-732","CWE-693"],"references":["https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/security/advisories/GHSA-m738-3rc4-5xv3","https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18276","https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/security/advisories/GHSA-m738-3rc4-5xv3","https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18276"],"products":["xwiki:xwiki"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:20:07.141963181+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2021-32729","score":0.00499,"percentile":0.42755,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-m738-3rc4-5xv3","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-m738-3rc4-5xv3","summary":"A user without PR can reset user authentication failures information","modified":"2026-07-08T06:28:56.222497754Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-script","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-security-authentication-script","ranges":[">=11.6 <12.6.8"],"fixed":["12.6.8"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-security-authentication-script","purl":"pkg:maven/org.xwiki.platform/xwiki-platform-security-authentication-script","ranges":[">=12.7 <12.10.4"],"fixed":["12.10.4"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
