CVE-2023-3426Network attack vector

Organization-name disclosure via unchecked selector permissions

Published Aug 2, 2023 · Updated Oct 11, 2024

Missing authorization in Liferay Portal and DXP 7.4 allows remote authenticated users to list all organizations through the organization selector. The selector returns organization names without checking whether the requesting account has permission to view them. Any authenticated account can enumerate names outside its authorized scope, but the record reports no data modification or service interruption.
