Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a valid authenticated session to the Apache OFBiz instance; the vendor describes the replaceImageToExistImage service as lacking an authorization check, so a user without the proper catalog-image permission can still invoke it. The path-traversal component lets an attacker manipulate the target image path/filename to write or replace a file outside the intended catalog image directory. Limiting factors: authentication is mandatory (this is not a pre-auth flaw), and impact is bounded by what the service can write (image file replacement) rather than arbitrary command execution as described. The precise parameter and trigger mechanics are not detailed in the available sources beyond the service name and the 'path traversal + missing authorization' classification.

Impact

Key decision signals are largely absent: no CVSS vector, CWE, EPSS score, SSVC data, or KEV entry is provided, and the vuln.today priority is explicitly 'awaiting_data'. The only sources are the oss-security bundle advisory and the Apache OFBiz site, which disclose dozens of OFBiz CVEs at once; this entry (CVE-2026-76150) is one of the lower-severity authenticated issues in that batch. The vendor title describes it as an authenticated path traversal combined with a missing authorization check in the replaceImageToExistImage service, meaning a logged-in user who should not have catalog-image privileges can overwrite image files and escape the intended directory via path traversal. Because authentication is required and the impact is primarily file overwrite rather than direct pre-auth code execution, real-world risk is materially lower than the pre-auth RCE entries in the same advisory (e.g. CVE-2026-68524, CVE-2026-83542). No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, and there is no evidence of active exploitation. This should be remediated via the vendor upgrade but, on available data, is a secondary priority behind the unauthenticated/RCE items patched in the same release - note that CVSS and EPSS are missing, so this severity judgment is inferred from the vendor description, not confirmed by a scored vector.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with a low-privileged authenticated OFBiz account invokes the replaceImageToExistImage service, which does not perform the expected authorization check, and supplies a filename/path containing directory-traversal sequences. This causes an image upload/replacement to be written outside the intended catalog image directory, letting the attacker overwrite files they should not be able to touch. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Nov 04, 2026

Authenticated path traversal combined with a missing authorization check in Apache OFBiz's replaceImageToExistImage catalog service lets any logged-in user write or replace image files at attacker-influenced paths, including locations outside the intended catalog image directory. All OFBiz releases prior to 24.09.08 are affected, and because the service verifies neither catalog-image permissions nor the destination path, a low-privileged account is enough (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L - high integrity impact, low confidentiality and availability impact). No public exploit code, EPSS score, SSVC rating or CISA KEV entry is associated with this specific CVE; it is one of nearly fifty issues fixed together in the 24.09.08 release, several of which are considerably more severe pre-authentication remote code execution flaws.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to Apache OFBiz 24.09.08, the release the vendor states addresses this and the other vulnerabilities in the same batch; the advisory recommends no other mitigation and lists no standalone workaround for this specific issue, so upgrading is the complete fix and no patched build other than 24.09.08 is identified in the supplied data. Because 24.09.08 simultaneously resolves far more severe pre-authentication problems disclosed alongside this one - including CVE-2026-68524 (pre-auth RCE via attacker-controlled screen definition loading) and CVE-2026-83542 (unauthenticated RCE via login-page widget injection) - the single upgrade should be treated as closing the entire set rather than only CVE-2026-76150. Full details and the complete CVE list are available at https://ofbiz.apache.org/ and https://seclists.org/oss-sec/2026/q4/516.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Apache OFBiz is a Java-based enterprise application framework built around an entity engine (object/relational persistence), a service engine (named business services dispatched through the framework and normally gated by per-service permission checks), and a widget-based UI layer. replaceImageToExistImage is a catalog image-management service that replaces an existing product image with a supplied one. Per the advisory, the service performs no authorization check on the caller and does not constrain the destination path used for the image, which is why it is classified as 'Authenticated path traversal and missing authorization check'; the formal CWE identifiers are not listed in the available feed data, but the pairing matches the missing-authorization (CWE-862) plus path-traversal (CWE-22) classes. Because the write primitive is bounded by what the image-replacement routine can persist, the realistic impact is file replacement at attacker-influenced paths rather than the arbitrary code execution described for other CVEs in the same batch. The exact vulnerable parameter and request shape are not detailed in the available sources beyond the service name and the path-traversal plus missing-authorization classification.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A critical vulnerability in Apache OFBiz (all releases prior to 24.09.08) allows any authenticated user to write or replace image files at arbitrary paths, undermining data integrity for the catalog system and potentially enabling further attacks. Although no public exploit or active exploitation has been identified, the flaw is one of nearly fifty issues fixed in the 24.09.08 release, some of which are more severe pre-authentication RCEs. Leadership should prioritize patching to prevent low-privileged users from manipulating critical files and to address the broader set of vulnerabilities in the same release.
