# CVE-2026-92887: Apache OFBiz: REST API authentication bypassed by default when the auth attribute is omitted from a .rest.xml operation

- Severity: no CVSS score reported
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 24.09.08
- Published: 2026-11-05 · Updated: 2026-11-05

CVE-2026-92887 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.

## Affected

- Apache Software Foundation Apache OFBiz: fixed in 24.09.08

## Description

Incorrect default value in the REST API framework's .rest.xml definition parser (ModelApiReader) in Apache OFBiz through 24.09.07 on all platforms allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to invoke a REST API operation without providing valid credentials via a .rest.xml resource or operation definition that omits the auth attribute, which ModelApiReader incorrectly resolves to false instead of the true default declared by rest-api.xsd. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.08, which fixes this issue.
