CVE-2024-26270: Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP vulnerable to theft of hashed password

The Account Settings page in Liferay Portal 7.4.3.76 through 7.4.3.99, and Liferay DXP 2023.Q3 before patch 5, and 7.4 update 76 through 92 embeds the user’s hashed password in the page’s HTML source, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to steal a user's hashed password.

Root Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from the Account Settings page embedding hashed passwords in HTML output. In Liferay's architecture:

Portlet render methods (like AccountSettingsPortlet.render) typically prepare data for display
JSP files (like view.jsp) handle HTML generation
The CWE-201 classification indicates sensitive data insertion during response generation
The MITM attack vector implies client-side exposure of the hash While exact code isn't available, Liferay's modular structure and vulnerability pattern strongly suggest these components are responsible for improperly exposing the password hash during page rendering.
