[xwiki-users] No 'Edit' in on-line sandbox?
by Herta Van den Eynde 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Hello, Before installing XWiki, I wanted to play around in the Sandbox some to see if it meets our requirements. http://playground.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Sandbox/TestPage1 states: Click on "Edit" and modify the contents of this page, then click on "Save & View" to see how they look like on your page! But there is no 'Edit' menu or button to be found. And yes, I registered and logged in. Even tried different browsers to make sure it isn't some pluggin I installed. Is this supposed to work? Kind regards, Herta -- "Life on Earth may be expensive, but it comes with a free ride around the Sun."

Re: [xwiki-users] Documentation on Velocity binding for 'config' object?
by Eric Johanson 18 Dec '15

Thank you for the information. I was able to to go directly to the Invitation.InvitationConfig Document and see where I could edit the snippet of code that accesses the 'guestsActionsPage'. (The Velocity code resides in an object of type "Invitation.WebHome" and there is an item titled "Email message body HTML template"). But I don't see anywhere that I can actually change the value of guestsActionsPage itself. So I can't find where "$config.get("guestsActionPage") is actually defined. Is somewhere that I can modify its value? Or could it be hard-coded into the application? I also looked at the XWiki.XWikiServerXwiki document and found an object of type XWikiServerClass. This object has a property named "Server" that is set to "localhost". But that's not what the getExternalURL method seems to be using (it is getting a value that matches the short hostname). Is this the property that you were referring to in your answer? Thank you again for your help. -Eric -----Original Message----- From: users [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Eduard Moraru Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2015 5:51 PM To: XWiki Users <users(a)xwiki.org> Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Documentation on Velocity binding for 'config' object? Hi, I don`t know the code of the app in question, but specifically to your questions: * the document "Invitation.InvitationConfig" seems to be the one holding the configuration object with the "guestsActionsPage" property * getExternalURL uses the server configuration that you have set in your wiki's descriptor located in the main wiki at "XWiki.XWikiServerXwiki" (for the main wiki) or in "XWiki.XWikiServerWikiname" (for a subwiki).

[xwiki-users] Documentation on Velocity binding for 'config' object?
by deltamind106 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

There is a snippet of Velocity code in the XWiki invitation email template that looks like this: *$xwiki.getDocumentAsAuthor($config.get("guestsActionsPage")).getExternalURL())* Where is the 'config' binding for Velocity documented? If I want to change the value for "guestsActionPage", where would make this change? How does the "getExternalURL" method work? Currently, it seems to be using the short hostname in the URL it returns, which will not work for us since that particular hostname is not published on our DNS server. So I need to change the behavior of "getExternalURL" so that it uses an IP address. Where would I do that? Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. -Eric -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Documentation-on-Velocity-binding-for-con… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] [Security] Found important vulnerability in deprecated XML-RPC feature
by vincent＠massol.net 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

Hi XWiki users and devs, An important security issue in the XML-RPC module of XWiki (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XML-RPC+Integration) was brought to our attention by a community member (thanks Ruben Herold). Specifically if your wiki is available on the internet, it’s possible that an intruder may have had access to local files that can be read by the user under which you’ve started the Servlet Container used for XWiki. Note 1: The issue actually comes from the version of the Apache XMLRPC module we were using (https://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/) It’s been fixed in the latest version (3.1.3). We were using version 3.1. Note 2: ThE XWiki XMLRPC module has been deprecated for a long time now (was replaced by REST) but it was still enabled till XWiki 7.3M1: * In XWiki 7.3M1 we’ve turned off that feature * In XWiki 7.4M2 we’ve removed it altogether by default We recommend that you either upgrade to XWiki 6.4.7, 7.1.4 or 7.3+ or that you turn-off the XML-RPC feature on your wiki **especially if your wiki is open on the internet**. Turning it off is easy: edit XWiki’s META-INF/web.xml file and comment out or remove the following sections: ... <!--filter-mapping> <filter-name>XWikiXmlRpcContextInitializationFilter</filter-name> <servlet-name>xmlrpc</servlet-name> <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher> <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> </filter-mapping—> ... <!--servlet> <servlet-name>xmlrpc</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.xpn.xwiki.xmlrpc.XWikiXmlRpcServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <description>Sets, whether the servlet supports vendor extensions for XML-RPC.</description> <param-name>enabledForExtensions</param-name> <param-value>false</param-value> </init-param> </servlet—> ... <!--servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>xmlrpc</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/xmlrpc/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping—> … Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks -Vincent Massol on behalf of the XWiki Core dev team PS: If you need to discuss more about this security issue we recommend that you use XWiki’s security list, see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/MailingLists
