CVE-2026-73578 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It affects Apache OFBiz; fixed in 24.09.08.

## Summary

Apache OFBiz contains an authorization flaw in its request handling that lets an attacker bypass authentication on protected views by submitting a crafted _LAST_VIEW_NAME_ value. This can expose protected views and the business data they contain.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- Apache Software Foundation Apache OFBiz: fixed in 24.09.08

## Description

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.
