### Impact
XWiki discovered that the patch for GHSA-5cf8-vrr8-8hjm was insufficient and with slightly modified parameters to the `LiveTableResults`, it is still possible to discover password hashes one bit at a time, so with 768 requests, the full password salt and hash can be retrieved of a user.
### Patches
The check for password (and email properties) has been adjusted in XWiki 18.0.0RC1, 17.10.13, 17.4.9 and 16.10.17.
### Workarounds
The [patch](https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/c4442716b02ffcdaa9d5e703b1db6203e36456fa#diff-5a739e5865b1f1ad9d79b724791be51b0095a0170cc078911c940478b13b949a) can be applied manually to the wiki page `XWiki.LiveTableResultsMacros`.
