|
| Exploitation Conditions | The specific prerequisite is reaching OFBiz's view-rendering path (RequestHandler.renderView) as an anonymous/unauthenticated user and supplying a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ parameter that is persisted as saved-view state in the anonymous session, which is then re-rendered without re-applying the original view's request-map authentication requirement. Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) no authentication, no user interaction, and no special non-default configuration are stated as required. The principal LIMITS are: (1) version scope - only Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 is affected; (2) impact is confined to confidentiality (C:H, I:N, A:N) - it exposes protected views and associated business data but does not allow modification or service disruption; and (3) exposure is bounded to those protected views reachable through the saved-view mechanism. |
| Impact | This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue rather than an emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, 7.5) and the description agree cleanly: a remote, unauthenticated attacker over the network, with low complexity and no user interaction, can bypass the request-map authentication policy - there is no conflict between the vector and the narrative here (contrast with cases where a network vector contradicts a local-access description). Impact is confidentiality-only (C:H, I:N, A:N): protected views and associated business data can be exposed, but no data modification or availability loss is implied. The signals pointing down are consistent with each other: EPSS is 0.33% (26th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit or PoC reference appears in the provided input - only vendor/advisory references. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_week', which aligns with a patch-available, moderate-severity information-disclosure flaw rather than 'act_now'/'emergency'. Net assessment: real and worth patching on a normal cycle, but currently low observed-exploitation pressure; the low EPSS plus absence of KEV/PoC suggests no widespread active exploitation at this time. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote unauthenticated attacker interacts with an OFBiz 24.09 instance (24.09.x before 24.09.08) and supplies a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value that is stored as saved-view state in their anonymous session; on a subsequent request OFBiz renders that saved view without re-applying the target view's authentication requirement, returning a protected view and its business data. No public exploit code is identified in the provided sources, so this reflects the mechanism described in the advisory rather than a confirmed weaponized exploit. Low attack complexity and no required privileges or user interaction make the scenario straightforward against affected versions. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv2 – Nov 10, 2026
Unauthenticated remote attackers can bypass the request-map authentication policy in Apache OFBiz 24.09 (before 24.09.08) and read protected views along with the business data those views expose. Supplying a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value causes it to be persisted as saved-view state inside the anonymous session, and RequestHandler.renderView later renders that saved view without re-applying the original view's authentication requirement. Impact is confidentiality-only (C:H/I:N/A:N, CVSS 7.5); the issue is not in CISA KEV, no public exploit was identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is low at 0.33% (26th percentile), putting this at moderate priority rather than an emergency, although the fix is worth scheduling promptly given the unauthenticated network vector.
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
Unauthenticated saved-view authorization bypass in Apache OFBiz before 24.09.08 can allow remote attackers to bypass access controls, with the advisory title citing RCE impact. The issue is one of a large batch fixed in 24.09.08; an independent assessment rates it CVSS 3.1 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), although no vendor CVSS vector, EPSS score, KEV listing, or SSVC decision was supplied. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.08, which is the vendor-released fix for this issue and the version the advisory explicitly recommends; patch availability is confirmed from the vendor. The supplied references (https://seclists.org/oss-sec/2026/q4/516, https://ofbiz.apache.org/, https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/7b2syzksp7klt9fvhdg0olldvs2g83lz) do not document a configuration-level workaround, so the 24.09.08 upgrade is the only complete remediation described in the available sources, and any interim restriction of network reachability to OFBiz would have to be assessed separately rather than as a vendor-stated control. Because the vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, no authentication or user interaction is required to attempt the bypass, which makes patch scheduling on internet-facing instances the priority action; note that the fix resolves a confidentiality exposure only, so no data-integrity remediation or service-recovery step is indicated by the evidence.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Apache OFBiz is a Java-based enterprise application suite whose request handling is driven by declarative request maps (controller.xml entries) that bind a request to a view and carry the authentication/authorization policy for that view. The vulnerability is in the view-rendering path RequestHandler.renderView: a saved-view mechanism keeps a last-view name in session state so a view can be re-rendered later, and the supplied _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value is trusted when it is written into the anonymous session. Because the request-map policy is applied on the original dispatch but not re-evaluated when the persisted view name is rendered again, an anonymous user can reach a protected view through this alternate path - the root-cause class is CWE-288, Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel. The trigger is precisely described by the vendor as crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ input stored as saved-view state and re-rendered without the original view's authentication requirement; no memory-safety or race component is involved. The supplied intelligence contains no CPE strings, so affectedness is determined by the version ranges: Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms, with EUVD recording the range as 0 < 24.09.08. Impact is bounded to confidentiality - protected views and the business data behind them become readable - while integrity and availability are unaffected, and exposure is limited to those protected views reachable through the saved-view mechanism.

Executive ViewAI
Apache OFBiz, a widely used open-source ERP platform, has a high-severity authentication bypass (CVE-2026-73578) affecting versions before 24.09.08. Unauthenticated attackers can access protected views and the sensitive business data they expose. This affects any organization running the vulnerable OFBiz version, and leadership should care because unauthorized data disclosure could lead to regulatory, reputational, and competitive harm.
Apply vendor patch.
