Liferay Portal before 7.3.3, and Liferay DXP 7.1 before fix pack 18 and 7.2 before fix pack 6, does not restrict the size of a multipart/form-data POST action, which allows remote authenticated users to conduct denial-of-service attacks by uploading large files.
The redirect module in Liferay Portal before 7.3.3 does not limit the number of URLs resulting in a 404 error that is recorded, which allows remote attackers to perform a denial of service attack by making repeated requests for pages that do not exist.
Liferay Portal before 7.3.0, and Liferay DXP 7.0 before fix pack 89, 7.1 before fix pack 17, and 7.2 before fix pack 4, does not safely test a connection to a LDAP server, which allows remote attackers to obtain the LDAP server's password via the Test LDAP Connection feature.
Liferay Portal before 7.3.0, and Liferay DXP 7.0 before fix pack 90, 7.1 before fix pack 17, and 7.2 before fix pack 5, allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted serialized payloads, because of insecure deserialization.
Deserialization of Untrusted Data in Liferay Portal prior to 7.2.1 CE GA2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via JSON web services (JSONWS).
In Liferay Portal before 7.1 CE GA4, an XSS vulnerability exists in the SimpleCaptcha API when custom code passes unsanitized input into the "url" parameter of the JSP taglib call <liferay-ui:captcha url="<%= url %>" /> or <liferay-captcha:captcha url="<%= url %>" />. Liferay Portal out-of-the-box behavior with no customizations is not vulnerable.
Liferay 6.2.x and before has an FCKeditor configuration that allows an attacker to upload or transfer files of dangerous types that can be automatically processed within the product's environment via a browser/liferay/browser.html?Type= or html/js/editor/fckeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/liferay/browser.html URI. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue because file upload is an expected feature, subject to Role Based Access Control checks where only authenticated users with proper permissions can upload files
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the /html/portal/flash.jsp page in Liferay Portal CE 7.0 GA4 and older allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a javascript: URI in the "movie" parameter.
