Creation of new database tables through login form on PostgreSQL

Impact

It's possible to make XWiki create many new schemas and fill them with tables just by using a crafted user identifier in the login form.

Patches

The problem has been patched in XWiki 13.10.8, 14.6RC1 and 14.4.2.

Workarounds

The only workarounds for this are:

• use an authenticator which does interpret the login as a reference to a document
• using a different database than PostgreSQL
• upgrade XWiki
