To secure a KnowWE(JSPWiki) installation, you have to edit two files:
- jspwiki.properties:
- at the very bottom uncomment the line jspwiki.approver.workflow.saveWikiPage=Admin to enable the forced approval of new user accounts by an admin. (Make sure there is an 'Admin' group)
- make sure the option allowHTML is set to false
- jspwiki.policiy: comment the permissions of 'Anonymous' to disable anonymous editing before:
grant principal com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.Role "Anonymous" { // permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.PagePermission "*:*", "modify"; // permission com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.permissions.WikiPermission "*", "createPages"; };* Install.jsp: Make sure that the file Install.jsp is deleted from the root folder of the web application.
After that, restart the container and the wiki is secure.
