What the vulnerability does

01Description

XWiki Platform is a generic wiki platform offering runtime services for applications built on top of it.

As a workaround, setting the right of the page Filter.WebHome and making sure only the main wiki administrators can view the application installed on main wiki or edit the page and apply the changed described in commit fb49b4f.
