Description
Missing authorization enforcement in RequestHandler.renderView in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to bypass the request-map authentication policy for protected views by supplying a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value, which is stored as saved-view state in the anonymous session and later rendered without re-applying the original view's authentication requirement, potentially exposing protected views and associated business data. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.

Impact

Apache OFBiz 24.09 pre‑24.09.08 has a missing authorization enforcement in RequestHandler.renderView. An attacker can supply a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ that is stored as a saved‑view in an anonymous session and later rendered without re‑applying the view’s original authentication rule, exposing protected UI pages and associated business data. The vulnerability is classified as Unauthorized Access (CWE‑288).

Affected Systems

The affected product is Apache OFBiz 24.09 prior to 24.09.08 on all operating platforms. Any installation of these versions is vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

Exploitation requires only the ability to send HTTP requests to the application; no user credentials are needed. The EPSS score is unavailable, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, yet the combination of unauthenticated access to protected resources suggests a high severity risk. The likely attack vector is remote web‑application interaction where the attacker crafts and submits a request containing a malicious _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.08 or later, which restores proper authentication checks for saved‑view rendering.
  • Clear or reset anonymous sessions after the upgrade to remove any previously stored view names that could expose data.
  • Implement input validation or request filtering to block suspicious _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ parameters until the official patch is applied.
