Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

The Script Console in Liferay Portal 7.0.0 through 7.4.3.101, and Liferay DXP 2023.Q3.1 through 2023.Q3.4, 7.4 GA through update 92, 7.3 GA through update 35, 7.2 GA through fix pack 20, 7.1 GA through fix pack 28, 7.0 GA through fix pack 102 and 6.2 GA through fix pack 173 does not sufficiently protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Groovy script via a crafted URL or a XSS vulnerability. This issue has been patched in Liferay Portal 7.4.3.102, Liferay DXP 2024.Q1.1, Liferay DXP 2023.Q4.0, Liferay DXP 2023.Q3.5, and Liferay DXP 7.3 Update 36.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2024-8980

Advisory: Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Vulnerable to CSRF in the Script Console
IDs: CVE-2024-8980, GHSA-chj2-4vg7-hhg3
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2024-8980 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:39 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Critical (CVSS 9.6)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom 7.4.3.102-GA102; com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom 2023.Q3.5, 7.3.10.u36. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Maven com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom: affected >= 7.0.0-a1, < 7.4.3.102-GA102; fixed in 7.4.3.102-GA102
- Maven com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom: affected >= 2023.Q3.1, < 2023.Q3.5; >= 7.0.0-GA, <= 7.0.10.fp102; >= 7.1.0-GA, <= 7.1.10.fp28; >= 7.2.0.GA, <= 7.2.10.fp20; >= 7.3.0-GA, < 7.3.10.u36; >= 7.4.0-GA, <= 7.4.13.u92; fixed in 2023.Q3.5, 7.3.10.u36

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Maven com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Maven com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom, com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
