Summary

Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms has missing authorization in ContentPermissionServices (CWE-862). A remote authenticated attacker with only a limited content-create permission can self-grant the OWNER role on arbitrary content through the createContentRole service. When no ContentPurposeOperation entry matches, the check defaults to granting access. The self-granted OWNER role then gives full read, write and delete control over that content.

Description from the CNA

Incorrect Authorization in ContentPermissionServices in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows a remote authenticated attacker holding only a limited content-create permission to self-grant the OWNER role on arbitrary content by invoking the createContentRole service (e.g. via the createForumGroupRole request), causing the permission check to fall through to a fail-open default-grant branch when no ContentPurposeOperation entry matches the requested operation and content purpose, rather than denying the request. A self-granted OWNER role then satisfies the ownership check used to authorize update, removal, and status changes on that content, giving the attacker full read/write/delete control over content they should not have access to. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.
