Low priorityMedium6.5EPSS 0.21%, higher than 11% of scored CVEs

CVE-2026-76150 is a path traversal in Apache OFBiz, rated medium (6.5 on CVSS 3.1).

Why this priority: Medium severity, with no exploitation signal.

Published · Updated · NVD status: Awaiting Analysis

What it is

A file name from the request can climb out of the intended folder with sequences like ../, reaching files the service never meant to expose. An action never checks whether the caller is allowed to perform it.

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 change data or behaviour. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker read or write files outside the folders the service meant to expose.

Is it being exploited?

There is no public report of exploitation yet. EPSS estimates a 0.21% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 11% 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

Path traversal and missing authorization check in the replaceImageToExistImage service in Apache OFBiz through 24.09.07 on all platforms allows a remote authenticated attacker with only Catalog view permission to overwrite arbitrary files writable by the OFBiz process with JPEG-encoded content via crafted productId, dataResourceNameExist, and dataResourceNameReplace parameters. 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

  • File storage the service can read or write. The flaw sits between the application and the file system it can reach.
  • 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 the application and the file system it can reach. An attacker who crosses it can read or write files outside the folders the service meant to expose.
  • 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?
