Description
org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-xml is a common module used by other XWiki top level projects.

The problem has been patched in versions 12.10.10, 13.4.4, and 13.8-rc-1. There is no easy workaround for fixing this vulnerability other than upgrading and being careful when giving Script rights.
