Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
There was no check in the author of a JavaScript xobject or StyleSheet xobject added in a XWiki document, so until now it was possible for a user having only Edit Right to create such object and to craft a script allowing to perform some operations when executing by a user with appropriate rights.
### Patches
This has been patched in XWiki 14.9-rc-1 by only executing the script if the author of it has Script right.
### Workarounds
The only known workaround consists in applying [the following patch](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/fe65bc35d5672dd2505b7ac4ec42aec57d500fbb) and rebuilding and redeploying `xwiki-platform-skin-skinx`.
