CVE-2024-25610Network attack vector

Stored XSS via unsanitized blog-entry content

Published Feb 20, 2024 · Updated Aug 28, 2024

Stored XSS in affected Liferay Portal and DXP releases allows remote authenticated users to inject script or HTML through blog entries. The default blog-entry configuration stores crafted content text without sanitizing embedded JavaScript, so the payload executes when another user views the entry. An authenticated account that can create or edit a blog entry is required, and a separate user must view it, exposing that user’s browser session to attacker-controlled script and HTML.
