Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Liferay Portal versions 7.4.3.12 through 7.4.3.36 Liferay DXP 7.4 update 8 through 36

Description The Translation module does not check permissions before allowing a user to export a web content for translation. This allows attackers to download a web content page's XLIFF translation file via a crafted URL.

Recommendations For Liferay Portal versions 7.4.3.12 through 7.4.3.36, consider restricting access to the Translation module until a patch is available. For Liferay DXP 7.4 update 8 through 36, consider disabling the export functionality for web content translation as a temporary workaround.
