What is CVE-2026-84183?

An incorrect authorization vulnerability in Apache OFBiz allows a remote authenticated attacker with limited permissions to execute arbitrary commands as the OFBiz process user. This is achieved through a flaw in the updateLayout method, where the authorization check inadequately validates permissions against the intended Content record. As a result, an attacker can manipulate existing content records, leading to security breaches. It is advisable for users to upgrade to version 24.09.08 to remediate this issue.

Affected Version(s)

Apache OFBiz 0 < 24.09.08
