MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires an authenticated instance user account (PR:L) on an affected Liferay Portal (7.4.0-7.4.3.132) or Liferay DXP build, plus active user interaction (UI:A) with the Collection Provider component, and the vendor-indicated attack requirement (AT:P) must be met. Exploitation is only meaningful in multi-instance (multi-tenant) deployments where cross-instance Blueprint isolation is expected - in a single-instance deployment there are no other instances' Blueprints to expose. Limiting factors: valid credentials are mandatory, user interaction is required, impact is confined to reading/selecting Blueprint objects (no credential or user-data exposure), and the practical value depends on a multi-tenant configuration. |
| Impact | This is a genuinely low-priority issue despite being a cross-instance authorization flaw. The vendor-supplied CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A) and base score of 2.0 align consistently with the description: exploitation requires an authenticated instance user (PR:L), active user interaction (UI:A), and a specific attack condition (AT:P), and yields only low impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L). All signals point the same direction - EPSS is low at 0.27% (18th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit was identified in the provided data. No SSVC decision data was supplied. The one notable nuance is the cross-instance scope: a multi-tenant Liferay deployment where instances are expected to be strongly isolated may weight this higher than the raw score implies, because any cross-tenant data leakage can breach a trust boundary. However, the data disclosed is limited to Blueprints (Collection Provider configuration objects), not credentials or user data, so real-world risk remains low. There are no conflicting signals here - this is a low-severity, authenticated, low-impact information-exposure issue, not a high-CVSS-but-low-risk case nor an underrated one. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated low-privilege user on one tenant instance of a multi-tenant Liferay deployment interacts with the Collection Provider feature and, due to missing authorization checks, is able to enumerate, read, and select Blueprints belonging to other instances they should not have access to. No public exploit code was identified, and the attack requires both valid credentials and active user interaction, limiting its practical reach. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 18, 2026
Missing authorization in the Collection Provider component of Liferay Portal 7.4.0 through 7.4.3.132 and multiple Liferay DXP 2024-2025.Q2 releases allows authenticated instance users to read and select Blueprints belonging to other instances in multi-tenant deployments. Exploitation requires a valid low-privileged account and user interaction, and impact is limited to confidentiality and integrity of Blueprint objects; the vendor CVSS 4.0 score is 2.0, EPSS is 0.27%, and no public exploit was identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch version is identified in the provided data; consult the Liferay advisory at https://liferay.dev/portal/security/known-vulnerabilities/-/asset_publisher/jekt/content/CVE-2025-62247 for the fixed release and upgrade affected Portal and DXP deployments as soon as it is available. Until then, restrict Collection Provider and Blueprint read/select access to trusted administrator roles and remove or limit non-admin instance user accounts that do not require Blueprint access, accepting that this may disrupt legitimate content-collection workflows. For multi-tenant deployments that depend on cross-instance Blueprint isolation, separate tenants into distinct Liferay deployments rather than relying on instance-level boundaries, understanding the added operational and infrastructure cost. Review Liferay audit logs for unauthorized Blueprint reads or selections and monitor the vendor advisory for updated fixed versions.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP are Java-based digital experience platforms whose Collection Provider component supplies collections of assets, including Blueprints used for site and content templating. The flaw is CWE-862 Missing Authorization: the application does not enforce an authorization check before allowing an instance user to read and select Blueprint objects through the Collection Provider, so a user in one instance can reach Blueprints intended for another instance. The provided CPE data identifies liferay:digital_experience_platform and liferay:liferay_portal but uses wildcard versions, making the advisory version ranges the authoritative affected-product data. Meaningful exposure is limited to multi-tenant deployments where cross-instance Blueprint isolation is expected; in a single-instance deployment there are no other instances' Blueprints to expose, and the independent assessment notes that valid credentials, user interaction, and the vendor-indicated attack requirement are prerequisites.
