Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Liferay DXP's time-based OTP web module (com.liferay.multi.factor.authentication.timebased.otp.web, Maven) before version 2.0.25 allows a time-based one-time password to be reused multiple times within its validity period. An attacker who already has a user's TOTP can authenticate as that user. Upgrade to version 2.0.25 or later.

Written 7 Nov 2026.
