# Apache OFBiz: crafted view name bypasses login and exposes protected business data

Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 has a flaw in RequestHandler.renderView where a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value is stored in an anonymous session and later rendered without the original view's authentication check. A remote attacker with no account could reach protected views and the business data they show.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed OFBiz version in the framework's version file or release directory; `24.09.x` before `24.09.08` is affected.
- Confirm whether protected views are reachable without logging in from an anonymous browser session.

## Fix

- Apache OFBiz 24.09 series: upgrade to `24.09.08`.

## From the sources

Missing authorization enforcement in RequestHandler.renderView in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to bypass the request-map authentication policy for protected views by supplying a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value, which is stored as saved-view state in the anonymous session and later rendered without re-applying the original view's authentication requirement, potentially exposing protected views and associated business data. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.
