Focus on foswiki vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Mar 2026, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with foswiki. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total foswiki CVEs: 4
Earliest CVE date: 30 Apr 2009, 20:30 UTC
Latest CVE date: 21 Feb 2026, 06:17 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2026-2861
30-day Count (Rolling): 1
365-day Count (Rolling): 1
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 4.03
Max CVSS: 6.8
Critical CVEs (≥9): 0
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 3 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 5 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 0 |

These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for foswiki, sorted by severity first and recency.
A vulnerability was detected in Foswiki up to 2.1.10. The affected element is an unknown function of the component Changes/Viewfile/Oops. The manipulation results in information disclosure. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. Upgrading to version 2.1.11 is sufficient to fix this issue. The patch is identified as 31aeecb58b64/d8ed86b10e46. Upgrading the affected component is recommended.
An issue in the SpreadSheetPlugin component of Foswiki v2.1.7 and below allows attackers to execute a directory traversal.
Insufficient parameter validation in the Foswiki::Sandbox component of Foswiki v2.1.7 and below allows attackers to perform a directory traversal via supplying a crafted web request.
Foswiki before 1.1.8 contains a code injection vulnerability in the MAKETEXT macro.
The localization functionality in TWiki before 5.1.3, and Foswiki 1.0.x through 1.0.10 and 1.1.x through 1.1.6, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large integer in a %MAKETEXT% macro.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in UI/Register.pm in Foswiki before 1.1.5 allow remote authenticated users with CHANGE privileges to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) text, (2) FirstName, (3) LastName, (4) OrganisationName, (5) OrganisationUrl, (6) Profession, (7) Country, (8) State, (9) Address, (10) Location, (11) Telephone, (12) VoIP, (13) InstantMessagingIM, (14) Email, (15) HomePage, or (16) Comment parameter. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
UI/Manage.pm in Foswiki 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges by modifying the GROUP and ALLOWTOPICCHANGE preferences in the topic preferences for Main.AdminGroup.
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Foswiki before 1.0.5 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests that modify pages, change permissions, or change group memberships, as demonstrated by a URL for a (1) save or (2) view script in the SRC attribute of an IMG element, a related issue to CVE-2009-1339.
