Liferay Portal 7.4.3.67 < 7.4.3.68 Authentication Bypass

high Nessus Plugin ID 176450

Language:

Synopsis

An application running on a remote web server host is affected by a authentication bypass vulnerability

Description

The Dynamic Data Mapping module in Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP does not limit Document and Media files which can be downloaded from a Form, which allows remote attackers to download any file from Document and Media via a crafted URL.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Liferay Portal 7.4.3.68 or later.
