Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 17/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.76% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 55.9% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom (Maven) 7.4.3.48.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom (Maven) 7.4.3.48 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

The Asset Libraries module in Liferay Portal 7.3.5 through 7.4.3.28, and Liferay DXP 7.3 before update 8, and DXP 7.4 before update 29 does not properly check permissions of asset libraries, which allows remote authenticated users to view asset libraries via the UI.
