AI-suggested
1. Immediately audit and inventory all Liferay Portal and DXP instances to identify affected versions (7.4.0 through 7.4.3.131 and 2024.Q1 through Q4 releases as specified). 2. Restrict high privilege user roles and monitor for unusual user interactions that could trigger SSRF exploitation. 3. Implement network segmentation and firewall rules to limit the Liferay server's ability to make arbitrary outbound requests, especially to internal services. 4. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious SSRF patterns targeting custom object attachment fields. 5. Monitor logs for anomalous request patterns or creation of object entries linking to unexpected external resources. 6. Engage with Liferay support and subscribe to security advisories to apply patches or updates promptly once available. 7. Consider temporary disabling or restricting the use of custom object attachment fields if feasible until a patch is released. 8. Conduct internal penetration testing focusing on SSRF vectors to validate the effectiveness of mitigations and detect potential exploitation attempts.
Description
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exist in the Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.131, and Liferay DXP 2024.Q4.0 through 2024.Q4.7, 2024.Q3.0 through 2024.Q3.13, 2024.Q2.0 through 2024.Q2.13 and 2024.Q1.1 through 2024.Q1.20 that affects custom object attachment fields. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate the application into making unauthorized requests to other instances, creating new object entries that link to external resources.
