### [CVE-2019-11444](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11444) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Product&message=n%2Fa&color=blue) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Version&message=n%2Fa&color=blue) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Vulnerability&message=n%2Fa&color=brighgreen) ### Description ** DISPUTED ** An issue was discovered in Liferay Portal CE 7.1.2 GA3. An attacker can use Liferay's Groovy script console to execute OS commands. Commands can be executed via a [command].execute() call, as demonstrated by "def cmd =" in the ServerAdminPortlet_script value to group/control_panel/manage. Valid credentials for an application administrator user account are required. NOTE: The developer disputes this as a vulnerability since it is a feature for administrators to run groovy scripts and therefore not a design flaw. ### POC #### Reference - https://pentest.com.tr/exploits/Liferay-CE-Portal-Tomcat-7-1-2-ga3-Groovy-Console-Remote-Command-Execution-Metasploit.html - https://pentest.com.tr/exploits/Liferay-CE-Portal-Tomcat-7-1-2-ga3-Groovy-Console-Remote-Command-Execution-Metasploit.html - https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/46525 - https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/46525 #### Github No PoCs found on GitHub currently.
