Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-29041 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 7.3.10.fp1\n- com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 7.3.10.fp1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-29041/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-29041/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-29041","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-29041/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-29041","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-82j7-2h3j-hc7f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Liferay DXP","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can deny service to other users by manipulating their Multi-Factor Authentication settings in Liferay DXP.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"dxp","vendor":"liferay"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in the Multi-Factor Authentication module in Liferay DXP 7.3 before fix pack 1 allows remote authenticated attackers to prevent any user from authenticating by (1) enabling Time-based One-time password (TOTP) on behalf of the other user or (2) modifying the other user's TOTP shared secret.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Liferay DXP Vulnerable to Denial-of-service (DoS) in the Multi-Factor Authentication Module","id":"CVE-2021-29041","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2021"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP May Reveal S3 Store's Proxy Password","id":"CVE-2021-29043"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["7.3.10.fp1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-82j7-2h3j-hc7f"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["7.3.10.fp1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"com.liferay.portal:release.dxp.bom","purl":"pkg:maven/com.liferay.portal/release.dxp.bom","source":"GHSA-82j7-2h3j-hc7f"}],"prev":{"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Reveals Data via Overly Verbose Error Messages","id":"CVE-2021-29040"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-05-16","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Vulnerable to SQL Injection via the Fragment Module","id":"CVE-2022-42120","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-15"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Vulnerable to SQL Injection via Friendly URL Module","id":"CVE-2022-42122","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Vulnerable to CSRF via the Layout Module","id":"CVE-2023-35030","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Vulnerable to Multiple SQL Injections","id":"CVE-2021-29053","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-17"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP insecure default configuration","id":"CVE-2021-33321","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-03"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Fails to Invalidate CAPTCHA Answers After Use","id":"CVE-2021-29047","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-16"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Liferay Portal and Liferay DXP Fails to Check Permissions in Translation Module","id":"CVE-2022-38512","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-09","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can deny service to other users by manipulating their Multi-Factor Authentication settings in Liferay DXP.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-29041/"}
