You can try taking XWikiServletURLFactory.class from
xwiki-core-2.5.jar and put it in WEB-INF/classes where you have
deployed XWiki (under the same path as in the jar, i.e. the class
package) but it might not work properly because it may contain other
changes besides XWIKI-5575 which are not compatible with the
xwiki-core-2.4.jar.

Your best option is to patch the xwiki-core.2.4.jar. It's quite easy
if you're not afraid of Git and Maven:

Make sure you use the same Java version as the one running your
application server.
