Focus on ikiwiki vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Mar 2025, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with ikiwiki. 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 ikiwiki CVEs: 10
Earliest CVE date: 19 Feb 2008, 01:00 UTC
Latest CVE date: 21 Nov 2019, 20:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2015-2793
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 0
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: 4.83
Max CVSS: 7.5
Critical CVEs (≥9): 0
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 1 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 16 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 1 |

These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for ikiwiki, sorted by severity first and recency.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in templates/openid-selector.tmpl in ikiwiki before 3.20150329 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the openid_identifier parameter in a verify action to ikiwiki.cgi.
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in ikiwiki before 3.20101112 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a comment.
ikiwiki before 3.20110608 allows remote attackers to hijack root's tty and run symlink attacks.
Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in ikiwiki before 3.20110122 could allow remote attackers to insert arbitrary JavaScript due to insufficient checking in comments.
ikiwiki before 3.20170111.1 and 3.2018x and 3.2019x before 3.20190228 allows SSRF via the aggregate plugin. The impact also includes reading local files via file: URIs.
A flaw, similar to to CVE-2016-9646, exists in ikiwiki before 3.20170111, in the passwordauth plugin's use of CGI::FormBuilder, allowing an attacker to bypass authentication via repeated parameters.
ikiwiki before 3.20161229 incorrectly called the CGI::FormBuilder->field method (similar to the CGI->param API that led to Bugzilla's CVE-2014-1572), which can be abused to lead to commit metadata forgery.
The fix for ikiwiki for CVE-2016-10026 was incomplete resulting in editing restriction bypass for git revert when using git versions older than 2.8.0. This has been fixed in 3.20161229.
ikiwiki 3.20161219 does not properly check if a revision changes the access permissions for a page on sites with the git and recentchanges plugins and the CGI interface enabled, which allows remote attackers to revert certain changes by leveraging permissions to change the page before the revision was made.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the cgierror function in CGI.pm in ikiwiki before 3.20160506 might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors involving an error message.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the meta plugin (Plugin/meta.pm) in ikiwiki before 3.20120516 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) author or (2) authorurl meta tags.
ikiwiki before 3.20110328 does not ascertain whether the htmlscrubber plugin is enabled during processing of the "meta stylesheet" directive, which allows remote authenticated users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via crafted Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequences in (1) the default stylesheet or (2) an alternate stylesheet.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the htmlscrubber component in ikiwiki 2.x before 2.53.5 and 3.x before 3.20100312 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted data:image/svg+xml URI.
Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in the teximg plugin in ikiwiki before 3.1415926 and 2.x before 2.53.4 allows context-dependent attackers to read arbitrary files via crafted TeX commands.
Plugin/passwordauth.pm (aka the passwordauth plugin) in ikiwiki 1.34 through 2.47 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication, and login to any account for which an OpenID identity is configured and a password is not configured, by specifying an empty password during the login sequence.
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Ikiwiki before 2.42 allows remote attackers to modify user preferences, including passwords, via the (1) preferences and (2) edit forms.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the meta plugin in Ikiwiki before 1.1.47 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via meta tags.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the htmlscrubber in Ikiwiki before 1.1.46 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via title contents.
