AI-suggested

Organizations should immediately audit their Liferay Portal and DXP deployments to identify affected versions. Since no official patches are linked yet, interim mitigations include: 1) Restricting the ability to create or modify radio button type custom fields to highly trusted users only, minimizing the attack surface. 2) Implementing strict input validation and output encoding on custom fields at the application or web server level, if feasible, to neutralize malicious scripts. 3) Enhancing monitoring and logging for suspicious activities related to custom field modifications and user interactions. 4) Educating users about the risks of clicking on unexpected links or executing scripts within the portal. 5) Planning for timely application of vendor patches once released. 6) Reviewing and tightening authentication mechanisms to reduce the risk of compromised credentials. 7) Employing Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to limit the impact of injected scripts. These targeted steps go beyond generic advice by focusing on the specific vector (radio button custom fields) and the authenticated nature of the attack.

Description

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists with radio button type custom fields in Liferay Portal 7.2.0 through 7.4.3.129, and Liferay DXP 2024.Q4.1 through 2024.Q4.7, 2024.Q3.1 through 2024.Q3.9, 2024.Q2.0 through 2024.Q2.13, 2024.Q1.1 through 2024.Q1.12, 2023.Q4.0 through 2023.Q4.10, 2023.Q3.1 through 2023.Q3.10, 7.4 GA through update 92, 7.3 GA through update 36, and 7.2 GA through fix pack 20 allows remote authenticated attackers to inject malicious JavaScript into a page.
