Why this priority: High severity, with no exploitation signal yet.

Published · Updated · NVD status: Analyzed

What it is

A user or process is given privileges it should not have.

How it is reached

An attacker can exploit it over the network, with an ordinary user account, and nobody has to click anything.

What an attacker gains

A successful attack can read the data it protects and change data or behaviour. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker reach data or actions their role should not allow.

Is it being exploited?

There is no public report of exploitation yet. EPSS estimates a 0.18% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 8% of scored CVEs.

What to do

  1. Upgrade Apache OFBiz to 24.09.08 or later.
  2. Until it is patched, review who holds accounts that can reach it.

Description from NVD

Incorrect Privilege Assignment in the Order Manager in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows an authenticated user who holds only order view permissions (ORDERMGR_VIEW), without ORDERMGR_UPDATE or any role on the order, to modify approved orders, changing a ship group's shipping address and shipment method or appending items with an overridden price, via the updateShipGroupShipInfo and appendOrderItem services. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.

What this means for your architecture.

A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.

Components it touches

  • Permission checks in APIs and admin surfaces. The flaw sits between one role or tenant and another.
  • Multi-tenant services. The flaw sits between one role or tenant and another.

Trust boundaries in play

  • Authenticated network access. An account is needed, so exposure follows who can sign in: customers, partners or staff.
  • Between one role or tenant and another. An attacker who crosses it can reach data or actions their role should not allow.

Questions to answer about your own systems

  • Where does Apache OFBiz run in your systems, and at which version?
  • Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
  • What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
