Incorrect Authorization Bypass in Apache OFBiz

Publication date: 2026-11-05

Last updated on: 2026-11-05

Assigner: Apache Software Foundation

Description
Incorrect authorization in RequestHandler in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to bypass the authentication requirement of a protected view by appending it as a path suffix to a public request (e.g., /catalog/control/ListLocales/showPortalPage), causing the servlet to authorize the request based on the public path component while rendering the protected suffix view. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an incorrect authorization flaw in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08. A remote unauthenticated attacker can bypass authentication by appending a protected view path as a suffix to a public request. For example, accessing /catalog/control/ListLocales/showPortalPage would render a protected view despite being a public path.

Detection Guidance

Check Apache OFBiz version with command: curl -s http://your-ofbiz-server/ | grep -i 'ofbiz' or inspect server response headers for version details. Look for requests to protected views like /catalog/control/ListLocales/showPortalPage without prior authentication.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows attackers to access protected views without authentication. If exploited, it could lead to unauthorized data access, modification, or other malicious actions depending on the protected view's functionality.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.08 or later immediately. If upgrading is not possible, restrict access to sensitive endpoints via network firewalls or application-level access controls until the patch is applied.
