[xwiki-users] Watch list email format
by Daniel Johansson 07 May '10

07 May '10

I know this has been asked before but I can't find an answer. Can one customize the notification email format? For a non-wiki user those email look confusing. I'd like to have that a document was changed, link to the document and who changed it.

[xwiki-users] colorThemeInit and updating theme problem
by Ben Stuggler 05 May '10

05 May '10

Hello, I would like to have a specific color theme for my users depending of the groups. So I modified the colorThemeInit.vm to check the user group and apply a specific theme. My problem is after logging, I have to refresh the page manually to see the new theme, even if I click on a link in the wiki. How can I force a refresh automatically after logging? Should I call the template colorThemeInit somewhere else ? Thanks Regards Ben -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/colorThemeInit-and-updating-theme-problem… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] PDF export - Footer/Header/View
by Wilson Leão Neto 03 May '10

03 May '10

Hello all! I'm working with XWiki and I'm a newbie... I've read the tutorial available on http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Modules/RenderingModule and the customization part of the pdf export. I'm still clueless on how to do it properly... I have java experience, so I can code what is necessary, I just don't know where to go. All I want to do is change the default template. Changing the footer, header, TOC and breaking a page on every h1 found. I would be glad if someone could give me a hint. Thank you, Wilson

[xwiki-users] [Security Advisory] SQL injection issue.
by Caleb James DeLisle 03 May '10

03 May '10

In the 2.3 timeframe, a serious security bug was fixed. Hibernate treats backslashes differently from some database management systems and as a result native SQL can be injected through the searchDocuments function. This means members of a wiki can finish an SQL query, also this means that badly written searchDocuments or search queries go from small security issues to larger ones. NOTE: Passwords are hashed (encrypted) so they cannot easily be read from the database. Who's at risk? Database systems which treat backslash as an escape character and allow stacked queries are susceptible to arbitrary SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and DROP statements. These include: MS-SQL Postgres Database systems which treat backslash as an escape character but disallow stacked queries are susceptible only to arbitrary SELECT statements. These include: MySql Oracle Database systems which do not treat backslash as an escape character are not vulnerable these include: HSQLDB (default XWiki zip/exe installation) You can get a small groovy snippet to test your database and see if it supports stacked queries here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/SecuringXWiki#HMitigationMethods… What can be done: #1: XWiki-2.3 and XWiki-2.2.6 Are patched to convert \ to \\ in search queries so upgrading to them will negate the threat. You can download them here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Main/Download #2: If you compile your own branch of XWiki and are unable to upgrade, you can integrate the patch which was used to fix the problem The patch is here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Drafts/SecuringXWiki/XWIKI%2D4755%2… Since the database controller has changed, you will likely have to port this patch to your version, what's important is that api.XWiki.searchDocuments and api.XWiki.search have their input filtered. #3: You can and should make sure to log unexpected SQL at the database level. XWiki doesn't usually use the backslash character and queries containing backslashes should be logged specially. Also it is a good idea to log (or block if possible) any SQL comment syntax. Hibernate does not support comments and comment syntax is central to almost all SQL injection. Caleb

by Marine JULIAN 03 May '10

03 May '10

Hello, I installed XEM (version 2.3) from a distribution with Tomcat 6.0.26 and MySQL 5.1 on Windows XP. I followed the guide installation. After creating a new wiki instance, I tried to access it but unsuccessfully... I have some delay timeout expiration and wiki can't be displayed. I can only access to the main wiki. I don't know where to look for and what to do, do you have any suggestions ? When I imported the xem application xar, I had these error messages in Tomcat console : ERROR util.JDBCExceptionReporter - Incorrect string value: '\xC5\xABs va...' for column 'XWD_CONTENT' at row 1 ERROR .AbstractFlushingEventListener - Could not synchronize database state with session and after those, some like this one : ERROR packaging.Package - Failed to save document Sandbox.WebHome Do you think it's linked ?

Hi, I have a "security" problem in the document tree. People who doesn't have access to a specific space shouldn't even see his name in the tree results. I'm looking for the parameter which has to be modify to solve this problem but unfortunetely, it's very hard to find it. Can somebody help me? => there is a condition to had a link in the space name to see documents inside, I think it's here that I have to modify something but I can't find this code...
