Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2024-26272 is a cross-site request forgery vulnerability (CWE-352) affecting the content page editor component in Liferay Portal versions 7.3.2 through 7.4.3.107 and Liferay DXP releases including 2023.Q4.0 through 2023.Q4.2, 2023.Q3.1 through 2023.Q3.5, 7.4 GA through update 92, and 7.3 GA through update 35. The flaw is reachable through the p_l_back_url parameter and carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8.
Remote attackers can exploit the issue by tricking an authenticated administrative user into performing an action that submits a forged request, enabling password changes, server shutdown, arbitrary code execution in the scripting console, and other administrative operations without requiring direct authentication from the attacker.
The sole reference points to Liferay's security advisory page for this CVE, which is the authoritative source for any available patches or configuration guidance. The EPSS score rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.0613 on 2026-03-13 before receding to the current value of 0.0326, indicating a period of increased exploitation interest after disclosure.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Access enforcement requires verifying that state-changing requests originate from the authenticated user rather than a forged cross-site source.
Protecting session authenticity prevents attackers from replaying or forging authenticated requests via the victim's browser.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly require anti-CSRF controls such as tokens or SameSite attributes.

By denying access to phishing or malicious sites, the control lowers the likelihood that a user will be tricked into submitting a forged request that performs an unintended action on another site.
Contextual intelligence about emerging CSRF toolkits can be translated into updated anti-CSRF token or same-site policy configurations across applications.
