Apache OFBiz: Hard-coded Credentials in AdminServer Enable Unauthenticated Denial of Service
What happened?
Use of Hard-coded Password vulnerability in the AdminServer component in Apache OFBiz 24.09.07 on all platforms allows an attacker able to reach the AdminServer control port to query the server's running state and trigger an unauthenticated shutdown of the instance via the fixed default control key shipped in start.properties. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.
