The search functionality in XWiki 0.9.793 indexes cleartext user passwords, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a search string that matches a password.

Security readout for executives and security teams

XWiki 0.9.793 could put cleartext user passwords into its search index. If the search feature is reachable, an attacker might retrieve sensitive password data through matching searches. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, CWE, patch details, or evidence of active exploitation. Likely limited to legacy XWiki 0.9.793 deployments where search is enabled and reachable by untrusted users. The provided affected-product metadata is not populated, so verify actual installed versions and XWiki configuration before scoping exposure. Prioritize discovery over emergency response unless XWiki 0.9.793 is confirmed. If present and reachable, raise priority because the issue concerns password disclosure, not only application data leakage. Mitigation focus: Check XWiki guidance and the XWIKI-70 issue for vendor-confirmed remediation.; Identify and retire or isolate any XWiki 0.9.793 deployments.; Restrict search access from untrusted users while remediation is assessed..
