The Layout module in Liferay Portal 7.1.0 through 7.3.1, and Liferay DXP 7.1 before fix pack 20, and 7.2 before fix pack 5, does not properly check permission of pages, which allows remote authenticated users without view permission of a page to view the page via a site's page administration.
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
- Base score: 4.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.88%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 58
- Score date: 10/7/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
