CVE-2020-7934: Liferay Portal Vulnerable to Persistent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in MyAccountPortlet

May 24, 2022 (updated April 28, 2025)

In LifeRay Portal CE 7.1.0 through 7.2.1, the First Name, Middle Name, and Last Name fields for user accounts in MyAccountPortlet are all vulnerable to a persistent XSS issue. Any user can modify these fields with a particular XSS payload, and it will be stored in the database. The payload will then be rendered when a user utilizes the search feature to search for other users (i.e., if a user with modified fields occurs in the search results).
